Hi,
I'm UK based too and haven't really found any support besides Headway and this forum. I am quite fortunate that my kids are 10 and 12 so they have got used to my limitations and erratic memory etc.
They have been amazing during the holidays and not too demanding. I braved taking them to a small museum and gardens via public transport and we actually had a lovely chilled day out with no time pressures.
My daughter took the lead and we often joke about me giving the outward impression of being the responsible adult but they have to look after train tickets and give me directions.
Hang on in there x

TBI and PCS symptoms all came about 3 weeks after an accident at work in February 2012 when I hit my head on the corner point of a metal barrier at brisk walking pace.
Life as I knew it came to a shuddering halt that day. 20 year history of depression and anxiety now coupled with memory issues, personality change, speech and communication problems, ringing ears, impulsivity etc etc etc.
Damaged people are dangerous.....they know they can survive!
