A brain injury is life changing. For that reason alone, there needs to be more support for people affected. That is why I have registered my own charity, PAUL For Brain Recovery, to help fill the gap in the community. The vision of the charity is: - To educate and inspire people affected by brain recovery - To make life easier after brain injury - To promote brain wellbeing for everyone PAUL For Brain Recovery will endeavour to offer a quality peer-to-peer support service in the community. I have thankfully lived through brain recovery so I know what’s needed. I have recovered well enough to try and help others and make a difference. With your support, we can achieve more. You can help with our ambition to raise awareness and help others by: - Getting involved in our events by taking part - Organising your own event and fundraise for the charity - Volunteering your time to the charity - Donating to or sponsoring the charity The PAUL For Brain Recovery Centre - Hull Once you leave hospital you find your biggest challenge is only just starting. A new and completely different life is in front of you. The centre will provide support to those who need it, the brain injured and their families, and the centre will offer guidance through inspirational and motivational talks and educational sessions on topics from coping strategies to healthy nutrition, fitness, recovery and well being. Associates of the PAUL charity, including leading brain injury specialists, will also provide support. Visitors will be able to take part in a number of specifically designed physical and mental activities to help stimulate and progress their minds and memories, with all regular visitors having their progress tracked each month to highlight steps forward in their recovery portfolio.

The charity funds part of the activities of the Jardim dos Anjos (Garden of Angels) project in Canavieiras Brazil which was originally started by Italians. The project aims for "joined up thinking" in mentoring children right through from early childhood to the work place. They start in the creche and progress to the Julia centre. How much of the money raised actually reaches the school? All of it. The Julia Trust pays no salaries or expenses and the trustees personally fund the annual audit fees. We take children on a day care basis from broken homes and the poorest backgrounds and in conjunction with whatever family they have, give them whatever support we can. They first come to the creche from the age of three and we do literally everything for them. They are given a simple uniform so we can wash their home clothes, we teach them hygiene, how to clean their teeth, we feed them, we initiate them into simple routines that include the discipline of learning and we instil from the start strong values of kindness, good manners and respect for each other. A huge effort is made to educate the girls away from pregnancy aged 13 or 14. In parallel we run classes to teach the mothers home hygiene and cooking with a programme of regular home visits. When the children move from the creche to the compulsory state school system which operates for mornings only, the Julia centre is available in the afternoons where in addition to organised sport and fun activities they do back up class work. The state local schools haven't enough teachers and the kids are routinely sent away early without doing any lessons at all. There is no "them and us" feeling with the state school system and the town education department help fund one of our support teachers.

Rydym am drefnu a chymryd rhan mewn digwyddiadau a heriau i godi arian at elusennau ac achosion da oedd yn agos i galon Iwan. Ar Fehefin 28ain bydd 13 o ffrindiau Iwan, yn cynnwys ei frawd, yn beicio o Benygroes i Galway yng Ngorllewin Iwerddon. Os hoffech ein noddi i wneud yr her yma byddem yn hynod ddiolchgar. Dyma rai o'r achosion fydd yn elwa o'r arian a godir... Ysgol Dyffryn Nantlle (ysgol uwchradd Iwan), Clwb Pel-droed Mountain Rangers (y clwb cyntaf i Iwan chwarae iddo), Clwb Mynydda Cymru, WATERisLIFE (yn deithiwr brwd, roedd Iwan yn ymwybodol iawn o bwysigrwydd dwr glan) a Volunteer Society Nepal (i Nepal oedd taith olaf Iwan). Hefyd rydym yn gobeithio codi digon o arian i greu cofeb i Iwan yn ardal Dyffryn Nantlle. _________ In January 2018 a member of our community lost his life in an accident in Snowdonia. Our friend Iwan Huws was only 34 years old when he had a fatal accident on Tryfan mountain. His girlfriend, family and close friends have set up a charity in his name - the Iwan Huws Fund. We will organise and take part in events and challenges to raise money for charities and good causes that were close to Iwan's heart. On June 28th, 13 of Iwan's friends, including his brother, will be cycling from Penygroes to Galway in West Ireland. If you would like to sponsor us to do this challenge we would be extremely grateful. Here are some of the causes that will benefit from the money raised... Ysgol Dyffryn Nantlle, Clwb Mynydda Cymru, Mountain Rangers FC, WATERisLIFE and the Nepal Volunteer Society. We also hope to raise enough money to create a memorial to Iwan in the Nantlle Valley area. https://facebook.com/CronfaIwanHuws
