A West Yorkshire family has spoken of the devastating impact a violent care home attack has had on their lives, after a man was sentenced at Bradford Crown Court for attempted murder.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can produce life-altering challenges that persist long after the initial trauma. Every TBI is unique, but many survivors face lasting physical, cognitive and emotional effects.

When someone survives a serious accident or incident - it’s often the visible injuries that receive the most immediate attention. But for many families and carers, the most challenging and distressing effects aren’t the physical ones, they’re the subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) changes in personality, memory, and behaviour that can come from a traumatic brain injury (TBI). These hidden consequences can deeply affect relationships, independence, and mental wellbeing.
