Think Ahead Campaign

SABIC takes educating our community about concussion awareness seriously. Choose to Think Ahead with a Think Ahead beanie. When you think ahead, you think about the risks involved in your sport, leisure activities, driving, and work. You take precautions to protect your head and brain, you think about your loved ones, and you choose to love your brain!

Let’s call concussions what they are, mild traumatic brain injuries. Proceeds of each Think Ahead beanie will help support the Seizure & Brain Injury Centre in our mission to educate on the prevention of brain injuries!

Did you know that pompoms are said to have been worn by sailors to prevent them from bumping their heads when they worked in tight spaces and when the seas were rough!

Help us raise awareness of the Think Ahead Campaign on social media by tagging #Seizure&BrainInjuryCentre when you wear your Think Ahead beanie this winter!

"I have been accessing programs and services with SABIC since 2010. I am creeping up on my 12 year anniversary as a client! I participate in the programs held at the Centre and my favourite programs are the mall-walk, cooking, and crafts programs. SABIC allows me to meet new people, socialize, and learn new skills. The programs are very good because of the amazing program staff that are interactive and creative!"

"My daughter received a brain injury in a car accident. She received years of treatment and encouragement from professionals, family, and friends. The Seizure & Brain Injury Centre offers a wide variety of programs with caring workers to aid clients and their families. I became a volunteer as I wanted to help others who are in need."
