On Tuesday, August 31st, a horse race will be held at Waregem Koerse in aid of a good cause: 4Brain. Tessa Wullaert, top player with the national football team Belgian Red Flames, will represent TVH in the duo race "Horse Race 4Brain". Will you come and cheer her on? We are already dying to know who will be the first of the seven companies to cross the finish line.

Seven companies - including four from West Flanders - are showing their big hearts at Waregem Koerse. TVH is also part of it. Together we are supporting the 4Brain project, which was set up by two idealists (the Oostduinkerken resident Paul Vandenbossche and Professor Paul Boon from Knokke). 4Brain is a foundation set up in 2019 to support fundamental research on people with brain disorders.  

According to professor and Knokkenaar Paul Boon (head of the Institute for Neuroscience affiliated with Ghent University), half of the population will be the victim of a brain disorder at some point in their lives. "But too little is known about that," says Boon, who heads a fundamental research unit at Ghent University. "In our team we have twenty researchers, and we would like to recruit a few more. The funds raised by the seven companies are very welcome.”

The preparations have already been made. We are ready for it. See you there!
