BBC Radio 5 Live inter...
Brain injury survivor Ron Gains bravely shared his story with 5 Live's listeners on the Emma Barnett show. Ron and his wife Jayne talked about their experiences of what life is like following a brain injury, and the challenges faced as a result of short-term memory loss.
Speaking on the show, Ron said: "The organisation Headway has been fantastic with me. They've been a massive help to me. They gave me a Brain Injury ID Card that I can show.
"Brain injuries are terrible things and you can suffer with emotional difficulties, stress and anger, and people don't understand it. The card explains how you are as a result of your injury to those who don't know you."
BackOur Brain Injury Identity Card provides survivors with added confidence in social situations, while helping them to get the right support if they come into contact with the criminal justice system.
