Join the Geoffrey Jefferson Brain Research Centre, part of The University of Manchester and Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust at “Brain Health Day” on Saturday 15th March at Friends’ Meeting House in Manchester City Centre.
Explore the discovery stalls to learn about the groundbreaking research happening right here in Manchester. Engage with interactive brain games and activities, ask researchers your burning questions, and take advantage of health check opportunities.

There will be a variety of talks from leading researchers and medical professionals. Plus, don’t miss the special screening of “The Parkinson’s Project.” This inspiring film follows British climber Chris Hamper as he faces his Parkinson’s diagnosis and uses climbing to navigate his journey – we are thrilled to announce that Sheffield filmmaker and director Jess James will be there to introduce the film and participate in a Q&A session with the audience. The rest of the day is drop-in but you need to book for the film and Q&A.
