#BrainAneurysmAwarenessMonth is all about changing the silent story of brain aneurysms, replacing fear with facts and worry with support. We're here to support people affected by brain aneurysms and families with increased risk. Please visit hbasupport.org/brainaneurysm… for more info
We are delighted to be a patient partner for this pivotal and ground-breaking study. As a charity representing patients impacted by brain aneurysms and their families, who possibly have hereditary risk, this research is critical for better, more personalised patient care.
A landmark research initiative attempting to lay the foundation for the UK’s first genetic screening programme for brain aneurysms is set to get underway soon

We need action from government, not just words. In My Neuro Survey, people most reported being unable to access specialist mental health support despite needing this.

Thanks to @clemencybh for sharing her story on @BBCNews & @BBCTwo to raise awareness of brain injury and recovery. Our brain aneurysm rupture survivors understand the shock of a sudden rupture, huge recovery challenges and the devastating impact brain injury has.

FREE Guide - Understanding Familial Brain Aneurysms
Most brain aneurysms occur sporadically, meaning randomly with no pattern, and are not hereditary. However, sometimes patterns can occur in families.

We have responded to Lord Darzi’s Independent Investigation of the NHS in England. Read the
full statement from our Chief Executive @GCarr_Neuro on our website neural.org.uk/news/the-neuro… #NHS #BackThe1in6

ALT Neurological Alliance England logo, writing on a purple background. Our response to Lord Darzi's independent investigation of the NHS in England. Lord Darzi’s diagnosis today has confirmed what many people with neurological conditions have been telling us for years. A broken health service has made accessing the right treatment, care and support at the right time a lengthy battle for many and simply out of reach for others. Having seen the diagnosis, we now need action to treat the root causes. Lord Darzi’s frank assessment of the lack of patient voice in decision making emphasises the need for people affected by neurological conditions and organisations who support them to be at heart of this process."
Thanks to @RareRevolutionM for sharing our story - great article!
September marks #BrainAneurysmAwarenessMonth, a crucial time to shine a light on a condition that affects so many lives, yet remains underrepresented in public conversations. At @hba_support it holds special significance as they reflect on their journey.

Thank you @BBCWomansHour for sharing my story, raising awareness of familial brain aneurysms and @hba_support Women are more likely to have a brain aneurysm and the risks increases when you’re post menopausal. Excited about the ROAR Study led by Diederik Bulters to unpick why 🧬
❗️Brain aneurysms are more common in women than men.
@RebeccaMiddle16, founder of @hba_support, was diagnosed in 2015 and has since undergone treatment.
She speaks to @BBCNuala about the hereditary impact of this on both her and her family ⬇️
