This week we’re doing a special episode, focusing on head injuries in sport and their increasing impact on players at both professional and grass roots levels of the game. We are joined by Luke Griggs, Deputy Chief Executive of Headway – the UK’s leading brain injury charity – as well as having input from professional and amateur sports people. We discuss the causes and long term effects of brain injuries in sport, the advice for sports people in Headway’s “Concussion Awareness” campaign and we ask whether we need an evolution of attitude towards head injuries in sport.
