The Brain and Body Foundation concluded its final paediatric clinic for 2025, supporting 186 children diagnosed with sickle cell disease and neurological disorders. The session provided medical consultations, neurological and physiotherapy care, medication support, and caregiver education. This page highlights outcomes, visuals, and stories from beneficiaries and caregivers.

Harmony’s mother expressed deep gratitude for her transformation. Since joining the BBF program, her frequent joint pain and weakness have drastically reduced. She can now stand and sit with support, sleeps better, and has regained a healthy appetite.

Sarah’s mother shared that her daughter, who once experienced painful crises every few weeks, has now been crisis-free for nearly four months. Favour is thriving in school and enjoys outdoor activities again.

Nigeria continues to face rising cases of paediatric neurological disorders and remains home to the largest sickle cell population in the world. For thousands of children, access to specialised care is limited, expensive, or simply unavailable.

The Brain and Body Foundation’s clinic model addresses these gaps directly, providing consistent, expert-led medical intervention that improves health outcomes, strengthens families, and reduces long-term complications.

By closing the year 2025 having served over 500 children in our clinic, we reaffirm our commitment to advancing paediatric care standards and delivering solutions built on science, compassion, and continuity.

Your contribution helps us extend clinical reach, provide medication, deepen neurological and physiotherapy support, and expand access for children living with chronic medical conditions.
