The James Macready-Bryan (JMB) Foundation was established in 2007 following the violent assault of James Macready-Bryan, on his 20th birthday. The assault caused catastrophic brain injury, leaving James totally and permanently disabled. The JMB Foundation has two main aims: to provide financial support for care and rehabilitation, not only for James, but also for other young sufferers of an acquired brain injury (ABI); and to give a public voice to those young people – who all too often literally cannot speak for themselves – and to their families and carers.
