The United Kingdom Acquired Brain Injury Forum (UKABIF) is delighted to announce its new Strategic Partnership Programme for 2023/24.
The partners working with UKABIF over the coming 12 months are Irwin Mitchell Solicitors, Leigh Day, Cygnet Group and Frenkel Topping Group.

These organisations will meet with UKABIF regularly to assist the activities connected to the Time for Change programme of work.
The Time for Change campaign was implemented through the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) to improve post-acute care for people with an ABI.
Chloe Hayward, UKABIF’s Executive Director said: "Our Strategic Partnership Programme enables trusted organisations, with shared goals, to work with us over the coming 12 months.
“UKABIF’s strength lies in collaborative working and bringing people together. Through this partnership approach we work closely with government and Parliament, academics, charities, medical, legal and social care professionals to ensure that our demands
for change are evidence-based, logical and practical as a first step to policy change.”
Tom MacGuinness, from Leigh Day, said: “UKABIF continue to do hugely important work for those living with brain injury. Their work on the ABI Strategy over the past 12 months has really put brain injury at the forefront of health policy and Leigh Day
are delighted to be able to partner with them again this coming year. Keep up the great work!”
Lynne Carrick-Leary from Irwin Mitchell, said: “We are proud and delighted to continue to support and work in partnership as strategic partner with UKABIF. Both organisations have the same enthusiasm and synergy to continue the need for fully funded rehabilitation
for those living with an ABI. UKABIF has made massive strides in pushing through the national ABI strategy and we are excited that hopefully very soon, this will become a reality. We look forward to supporting UKABIF and all those they support in
pushing the boundaries in the ABI arena.”
Laura Finlay, Cygnet’s Director of Marketing said, “I’m delighted that we can continue our partnership with UKABIF as one of their strategic partners. Cygnet's and UKABIF's ethos and values are very much aligned to support those affected with acquired
brain injuries. I’m looking forward to more collaboration working, striving for specialised services and support for those with brain injuries.”
Iain Cherry, of Frenkel Topping, said: “It’s a privilege to work so closely with UKABIF to support the vital work they do for the community of people living with brain injury. Like Frenkel Topping Group, who are focused on life after life-changing events,
UKABIF is using its platform to raise awareness and take action in areas where brain injury has a significant correlation to outcomes, for example in sport, learning and education, domestic abuse and homelessness. In our area of work, collaboration
is key and we are looking forward to supporting UKABIF in its drive for change.”
Recently, UKABIF supported a Parliamentary reception hosted by Chris Bryant MP where people were able to meet their MPs to discuss the improvements needed to improve the lives of anyone affected by an ABI. UKABIF provides the secretariat for the All-Party
Parliamentary Group on ABI and is working with the Government to develop the ABI Strategy. For more information, please contact UKABIF.
