Raising awareness

The Alliance aims to raise awareness of the issues faced by people affected by neurological conditions. We contribute to relevant publications, develop resources, hold events, circulate our e-bulletin and work with other relevant organisations on common issues.

Brain Awareness Week

For Brain Awareness Week 2010 we held a very popular event at the Scottish Parliament. The Cabinet Secretary for Health and Wellbeing, Nicola Sturgeon addressed the audience and spoke of the importance of the implementation of the Clinical Standards for Neurological Health Services.

Once again this year we held an evening reception in the Scottish Parliament to mark Brain Awareness Week 2011 and to present Alliance manifesto. The event was sponsored by Malcolm Chisholm MSP, and brought together people affected by neurological conditions, voluntary sector organisations, health professionals and MSPs.
