The Disabilities Trust: 'Brain Injury' Ask - Understand - Adapt Your Practice

In 2021 The Disabilities Trust launched the Ask- Understand- Adapt online brain injury training which is available for all staff working across the CJS. Research shows that 6/10 people in prison have experienced a brain injury illustrating the importance of training in this area.

During this workshop we will showcase our brain injury link-worker service and discuss the impact of brain injury on the prison population. We will also provide practical advice on how to best support these men and women. There will also be an opportunity to watch the award-winning Invisible Me short film which conveys the experience of brain injury from the perspective of our service user J.

This event is open to staff and students who work in the Criminal Justice System only. Please register with your work or university email address. You will be asked to confirm your role and organisation at checkout. We may need to ask you to provide additional verification.

This is an online event, taking place on MS Teams. Please check in advance that you can access this platform. You may be required to use a personal device.

The event link will be included on the confirmation email and will not be sent out separately so please keep this safe and add it to your calendar.
