What we do

What we do

lobbying

UKABIF raises awareness of acquired brain injury in parliament and amongst policy makers. Our primary objective is to ensure that people with ABI have early access to local, specialist neurorehabilitation and follow up services in the community.

signposting

We provide information and links to other organisations so that people living with a brain injury, their families, carers and professionals have access to all the details they need.

Networking

UKABIF has a network of regional groups and an active online community. This means, people who work in the field of ABI are supported on a local and national basis and have access to contacts, care provision and educational resources.

Education

UKABIF organises an accredited national conference each year. Periodically we also offer specialist seminars. These events aim to educate attendees from a variety of professional backgrounds.

UKABIF's primary role is to raise awareness of acquired brain injury

To fulfil our objective of raising awareness of acquired brain injury we have a campaigning function. UKABIF provides the secretariat for the All Party Parliamentary Group for Acquired Brain Injury and steered the course to develop a report designed to drive change for brain injury survivors.

UKABIF also works with these groups:

  • The Specialised Commissioning Healthcare Alliance
  • The Neurological Alliance
  • National Voices
  • The Primary Care Neurology Alliance
  • The National Neurosciences Advisory Group
