The brain injury awareness flag is flying high at Thorold City Hall! ๐ง We're so proud to see our community come together to raise visibility for brain injury. A heartfelt thank you to Mayor Terry Ugulini for your support, and to Jonathan Hall for designing this beautiful flag.
More than half a million Ontarians are living with brain injury and too many of them do so in silence. When you see this flag raised in your community, know that it stands for every survivor, every caregiver, and everyone working to make the invisible visible. ๐๐
