Free event, open to anyone, all welcome to attend

Kathleen McMonagle, Digby Brown’s Corporate Social Responsibility Manager, is encouraging anyone affected by brain injury, and those interested or working in this field to attend.

“Brain injury can often be a hidden disability but no-one in Dumfries and Galloway has to live with it alone.

"I would really encourage anyone affected by brain injury to come along to the event and learn more about the local help and support that is available for individuals, families and carers.

“Digby Brown are proud to be working alongside Headway locally and to be supporting the Head Injury Information Day in Dumfries.”
