Oxford Brain Story
Building Brains for Lifelong Health
In partnership with the Alberta Family Wellness Initiative, the Oxford Brain Story is working to share the science about how our experiences can affect our long term mental and physical health. The core ideas are a key public health message and we believe it is important for everyone to know the role we can all play in building strong brains and strong communities.
The Brain Story is relevant to anyone who works with children, families or adults. We are working with partners from Health and Social Care, Education, the Criminal Justice system and a range of voluntary organisations.
Our aim is to establish a shared understanding across organisations, professional groups and communities, with a shared language to talk about the impact of adversity and our role in mitigating its effects. Together we can use science to improve outcomes for both children and adults.
