Resources

Posters – Brain Disorder Facts

Download 16 different posters with facts about brain disorders, including epilepsy, dementia, migraine, and aneurysm. Each poster is available in full colour, simplified colour (for easier printing / lower ink usage), and black & white.

These disorder facts are a great way to start a conversation about brain health. Place them around your workplace, school, sports club, community centre, local library, or anywhere else you can think to raise awareness!

Posters – Event Information

Download 6 different posters with information about Brain Awareness Week and the event schedule. Each poster is available in full colour, simplified colour (for easier printing / lower ink usage), and black & white.

These posters make it easy for people to learn about Brain Awareness Week and register using the QR code. Place them around your workplace, school, local community centres, and anywhere else you can think of to raise awareness.

Activity Booklet

This Activity Booklet contains 24 pages of engaging puzzles, colouring in, and creative challenges for kids. It can also be a great way to get kids interested in science. Print out copies to share through school, daycare, waiting rooms (i.e. paediatricians), or your local library.

Social Media Tiles

Download nine ready-to-post social media tiles, with plenty of different messages and post sizes to choose from. We’ve also included two blank templates for story posts – perhaps you could share a new fact you learnt, what brain awareness means to you, or something you’d like to try to improve your brain health.

Email Banners

Invite your workplace to get involved in Brain Awareness Week by adding a banner to your email signature. Brain awareness is a great fit for the workplace – you could suggest a Lunch and Learn for your team (by attending one of our daytime webinar sessions), or organise a trivia fundraiser on a Friday afternoon. Other ideas are organising a meditation / mindfulness break to reduce stress, or updating your office environment to make it more migraine-friendly.

Zoom/Video Call Backgrounds

If you work remotely or attend a lot of meetings over video call, Brain Awareness Week is a great opportunity to switch things up and spark a conversation in your next e-meeting! We’ve created three different options for Zoom / video call backgrounds. Each background also has a ‘reversed’ option, if your webcam is mirrored.

Logo Kit

Calling all creatives! If you want to create your own social media graphics or posters for Brain Awareness Week, you can download our logo kit to add to your designs. We’re excited to see what you come up with to help celebrate Brain Awareness Week.

Note: Please adhere to our logo guidelines, which are included in the Google Drive folder. Logos cannot be used in paid promotions or sold for profit. If you have any questions about logo usage, please contact us.
