From 2016 – 2017 the European Federation of Neurological Associations ran a campaign called ‘Together Under the Umbrella’.

As part of EFNA’s Together Under the Umbrella campaign, individuals and organisations were encouraged to take a photo under an umbrella and share it to social media to raise awareness, mentioning the neurological disease area they are either affected by or represent.

The aim was to highlight to wider society, the range of disorders of the brain – their impact and prevalence.

The campaign was particularly active on World Brain Day (July 22nd), when hundreds of photos were shared on social media from across the world. Here are a selection from shared on Twitter:
