BBC Children in Need Look North Broadcast

November 14th, 2023

For the last five years, BBC Children in Need have been supporting some of our our innovative work with children and young people who are living with either a traumatic or an non-traumatic brain injury, following a serious accident or illness.

We are delighted to have been selected to be part of the BBC Children in Need Launch Event and have our film shown on BBC Look North on Friday 10 November. The film tells Luke’s story and how his life was unexpectedly changed by a stroke when he was 11.
