I have taken part in this survey as a care giver along with my wife of our son since June 1980 who suffered a serious brain injury in a car accident.
This survey is very important,as the caregiver is often forgotten. I think the health and well being of the caregiver is also important,who will look after our son when we are gone ? certainly not the government

Minnie’s presentation on Be Accessibe was truly inspiring. disappointing to see those most in need of ‘enlightenment’ were absent….a great build up for the RWC and way beyond so up to those who did attend to be vocal! and spread the Be word!
