Georgina Couch from The Neurological Foundation

The Neurological Foundation is bringing a free fun-filled educational day out for all ages to Brain Day Christchurch ! Expect lots of fun activities for the kids (including a walk through an inflatable brain) and the chance to learn all about the brain from scientists.

Plus, we have three thought provoking talks during the day covering topics on healthy ageing, Dementia, Parkinson’s and Stroke. There’s more info about the lectures here.

Put a reminder in your diary for Saturday 17th March, 10am - 2:30pm at the La Vida Centre, 34A Hanson’s Lane, Upper Riccarton.
