Cognitive rehabilitation

Many people with brain injury or neurological conditions have cognitive problems like memory, attention and concentration and general thinking skills including sequencing, planning and organisation. This is where our cognitive support programme can help.

Memory Workshops

The Memory Workshop has been one of the most important things in helping me become confident and independent since my road traffic accident. If is a 'safe place' for me. The support from everyone involved is incredible and most appreciated.

The aims of the memory workshop are:

To teach compensatory strategies to help people manage their cognitive problems better in everyday life
To build confidence in dealing with cognitive problems
To increase social skills
To provide an enriched and stimulating environment to enhance thinking and help motivation
To encourage socialisation with others and the exchange of ideas of managing cognitive problems.

Captain's Log one-to-one brain training

The Captain's Log, mental gym, provides over 1000 hours of powerful, fun, game-like exercises to stimulate the areas of the brain responsible for cognitive abilities including attention, impulse, control, memory, conceptual reasoning, visual and auditory processing.

Courses normally last for 20 sessions and the idea is to make the most of people's abilities through practice and exercise.
