Our Journey

Our journey began developing an app, Alfred, to support memory, planning and connect survivors with their families, and support network. We learnt a huge amount from Alfred and have now teamed up with world-leading academics, clinical experts and hundreds of survivors and family members from all over the world to build neumind - the next-generation support system for survivors and family members.

Our Journey

Our Mission

70% of individuals do not get neurorehabilitation. They are then discharged home with little or no support. Families are forced to pick up the pieces, spending on average more than 8 hours a day caring for their loved-ones. We built neumind to change this, making the best long-term support affordable, convenient and available to all.

Our Mission

We are a talented, multi-disciplinary team deeply passionate about making a positive impact in the world.
