Christmas cheer in Queen Square
Here in The National Brain Appeal office we're in full festive swing with the arrival of our new Christmas card designs. Already the packs are flying off the shelves!
Sending National Brain Appeal Christmas cards is the perfect way to show your friends and family that you want to improve the lives of those with neurological conditions. You can see the full range and buy from our shop using the link below. Remember to order soon as the top picks sell out quickly!
Carol concert time
An evening of Christmas carols is a guaranteed way to sprinkle some festive magic on to a cold winter's evening. And this year, our annual Christmas carol concert is shaping up to leave you with the warmest of glows!
We are delighted to announce our celebrity readers are actors Emilia Fox and father Edward Fox; Simon de Deney; breakfast TV's Richard Arnold and former BBC correspondent Rosie Millard (see below). There will be performances from The Julius Singers; the Queen Square Scratch Orchestra and retired neurosurgeon and charity trustee Mick Powell will play saxophone.
Our doors will open at 6.30pm, where we will have mince pies and wine to welcome you, and the concert begins promptly at 7.15pm.
Use the button below to buy your ticket today. We'll see you there!
Make your voice heard
This autumn, a new neurological patient experience survey opened. It aims to gather information about your experiences of treatment and care, social care and welfare as someone with a neurological condition.
The Neurological Alliance survey aims to collect enough data to positively influence future neurology services.
To share your views, use the link below. The deadline is 17 January 2019.
New celebrity supporter
Rosie Millard OBE, journalist and chief executive of charity Children & the Arts and chair of Children in Need, has just come on board as one of our Headliners.
She is full of praise for the staff at The National Hospital after she recently underwent surgery to remove a brain tumour. After the operation she told us, "Queen Square is probably the best place in the world to have your brain treated. The care, expertise and kindness here is exemplary".
We are delighted she wants to support us – you can catch her reading at our carol concert in December.
