Jenny Clarke: Championing Brain Injury Recovery with SameYou.org

We saw straight away that there was such little provision for helping people get their lives back after a brain injury or stroke, and because she was in her 20s both times, you know, it is obviously clear that when you're young and you maybe haven't quite got your identity together yet, whatever that might be, and then something catastrophic happens and it's your brain which is, you know, arguably you, and you haven't got help.
Imagine facing a brain injury and feeling lost in a sea of medical jargon and limited resources. That's where Jenny Clarke and her daughter Emilia Clarke step in with their incredible initiative, SameYou.org.
