We build stronger brains for better lives
– Sir Al Aynsley-Green
Transforming the lives of children and young people through neuroscience
Stronger Brains empowers children and young people to build better lives by measurably improving their brain health. Brain health affects almost every aspect of life including education and employment success, relationship success, physical health, social and emotional wellbeing, addictions, eating disorders, violence and crime.
We do this through our Neuro-Development Model by:
teaching children and young people about their brain and how to make it stronger through our world-leading Brain Health Curriculum
empowering them to become “stronger captains of their ship” by mentoring them through their Personalised Empowerment Plan
assessing and measurably improving their brain function by building new neural pathways through their Personalised Neuroplasticity Plan and our fun, online, brain training programs, created by Dr Michael Merzenich, the “father of neuroplasticity” and Co-Founder of Stronger Brains

The concept of using neuroplasticity to help vulnerable young people, both intrigued and inspired me to join Stronger Brains as a volunteer in 2018. The passion and dedication of the team as well as the diverse learning opportunities have motivated me to stay.
This role has given me the opportunity to meet the young people we are helping and understand the difference our program makes. I’ve been actively encouraged to; participate in team building and strategy sessions and learn new skills like using Tableau for data analysis. I’ve also been involved in a long-term research study and all that entailed from ethical clearance to reporting our results. Stronger Brains fosters a very collaborative environment making it a very supportive place to work, I would encourage anyone who is interested to get in touch.
