We would like to see ACC data relating to Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) and Concussion for Nelson, Tasman, Marlborough and West Coast regions which includes accident type, sporting code, gender, ethnicity and age group. It would be most helpful if this was available in editable spreadsheet format so that we can filter this according to each data field and produce graphics for educational purposes.

We are a New Zealand charitable organisation covering the top of the South Island and the West Coast. This data would assist us immensely in providing up-to-date, reliable data to our key funders when submitting our grant applications. The funders, particularly Lottery Grants Board, Rata Foundation and Lion Foundation, frequently advise it would be helpful to see more specific data than our local client base statistics.

We offer information and education programmes on brain health and injury prevention to a range of ages and people in the community. We also seek funding from national funding organisations eg who support sporting codes, so being able to present real data relevant to a particular sport and by age groupings would be very helpful.
