04.01.2022 People living with a brain injury or progressive neurological condition give back to the community. 20 of the Body Brain Fitness participants have been working hard to exhibit their art works this Saturday 1 Nov at 1228 Pacific Highway Pymble. The BBF program gives people with significant physical and or cognitive difficulties the opportunity to participate in enriching activities and new learning. Research supports this type of activity participation as a way to preserve cognitive function as we age. So often people living with significant disabilities are denied participation in these activities. BBF provides opportunities.
