This is from the official website of The James Macready-Bryan Foundation.


The James Macready-Bryan (JMB) Foundation has been established to provide support for the rehabilitation of James Macready-Bryan and others in similar necessitous circumstances. James incurred life changing injuries to his brain as a result of an assault where he fell and hit his head in October 2006. Unfortunately, when he fell, he also fell through a gap in our social support system, which provides very limited funding for the care and rehabilitation of young acquired brain injury patients.
The Foundation aims to raise money and public awareness of the plight of many young people in our community who find themselves, through their disabilities, confined to unsuitable accommodation and with inadequate opportunity to receive appropriate rehabilitation and care.
