In her early 50’s Cynthia Burke had a ruptured brain aneurysm in March 2016 resulting in brain injury. This ended her 30-year career as a successful hospitality business owner. Through sheer determination, support and a lot of patience Cynthia learnt to live with the results of her injury minimising the impact this has on her day-to-day life. 

Drawing on the skills she obtained working in hospitality – a genuine interest in hearing and listening about the lives of her customers over a long coffee nowadays Cynthia hosts 3 podcast series:

• Brain Injury Conversations,

• Brain Aneurysm Conversations and

• Tales of the Valley

Cynthia is intent on raising awareness of brain aneurysms and having them included on the public health awareness agenda, as well as the development of a clinical pathway for brain aneurysms in hospitals.

A truly inspiring local lady determined to increase the awareness of prevention and living with brain aneurysms nationally.

Please be aware that Cynthia’s condition makes it uncomfortable for her to be in crowds, and therefore we ask attendees to keep applause and chatter to a minimum.
