Let’s raise some dough in
Inishowen
05.03.19
ON your marks, get set, bake! There’s a rush on
flour and eggs as hundreds of families and friends
touched by brain injury get ready to raise some
dough to support the life-changing work of Acquired
Brain Injury Ireland. Bake parties are set to raise vital funds for brain injury
rehabilitation.
Once again, the people of Inishowen are encouraged
to organise a bake party to raise funds for this
special cause that touches so many lives after
serious brain injuries from stroke, road traffic
accidents, falls and brain tumours.
Bake parties are set to be part of the National
Brain Awareness Week from 11-17 March. |
Jonathan Power, Head of
Fundraising with Acquired Brain Injury Ireland said:
“We’re looking for people to join in the fun and
embrace the ‘flour power’ for our annual ‘Bake for
Brain Injury’. Hosting a bake party or coffee
morning between 11-17 March is a great excuse to
catch up with friends at home, work or school while
raising vital funds for our charity. Your support or
donation will make a real difference to people who
need our help after their lives are turned upside
down after brain injury. Monies raised will go to
support our local services so we can provide more
personalised rehabilitation programmes to more brain
injury survivors.”
Every year in Ireland an estimated 19,000 people
acquire a brain injury. Nobody ever thinks a brain
injury will happen to them but according to Acquired
Brain Injury Ireland it happens to 52 people here
every day.
