National Cerebral Palsy Day is March 25. Cerebral palsy is the most common childhood disability with 17 million people worldwide suffering from it. Green is the NCP colour and raising awareness of the condition in any way is a great way to celebrate the day.
March 21 is World Down Syndrome Day to raise awareness and raise funds. 700 children in the UK are born with Down Syndrome each year, but little research is done into it. Wear and post lots of socks and help those with Down Syndrome be heard.
March is brain injury awareness month. It's aim is to raise awareness of how many people suffer from brain injuries and what can be done to prevent them. Rehabilitation is sometimes possible but some symptoms will likely always persist. We look at the different types and how it affects the patient.
