History From the Re-establishment of BICT
The BICT was started in 1993 in New Zealand.
The Friends of Brain Injured Children Trust was born when a group of 3 parents who were undergoing a home based therapy program with their children gathered together frustrated at the lack of support and understanding they were getting from the professionals.
They were working hard and participating in early intervention for their children, trying to make a positive difference in the quality of their children’s lives towards independence, and wanting to share the hope of the Neuro Developmental Therapy programme with other parents..
We provide families/whanau with access to:
Support for physical and emotional needs.
Resources and specialised equipment.
Experience/knowledge from all the families involved.
Advice for NDTP (Neuro – Developmental – Therapy-Programs) and Home Based Therapies.
Information on New Zealand based programmes.
We are proud to be the charity partner of
The Going Bananas Show
Through the fantastic work the team at The Going Bananas Show is involved in, we are able to get our vision and mission out to communities all across New Zealand each year.
The Going Bananas Show has helped us reach many families that would have never known about us. They have helped bring awareness to families/whānau with how we can provide support and guidance.
The funds raised each year through this partnership enable us to financially support programs for families/whānau that have a child with a brain injury.
The Going Bananas Show was created to bring live stage show entertainment to all the regions throughout New Zealand each year.
This is a fun interactive show that caters to children from 3-13 years old. The children/caregivers are selected by schools and agencies in each district to attend. These children will generally have an array of special circumstances, from medical, physical or financial.
This means that the day is something of a special treat.
