This free course is facilitated by a psychologist who specialises in supporting people living with brain injury.
RTP also draws on the experience of peer mentors, who offer insights from their own journeys of recovery.
These groups are jointly funded by the Lifetime Support Authority and BISA and run across three different groups, across a 10-week period.
Topics covered across the program include:
- Learning more about the brain and neuroplasticity
- Exploring the challenges of brain injury and strategies that may help with recovery
- Relationships, values and identity
- Mental health, wellbeing and hopes for the future
