Rehabilitation Centre and Satellite services
These services require funding and for people with significant residual symptoms affecting their ability to carry out their daily living. They are often funded by Adult Social Care but can be funded privately, via direct payments or from compensation packages.
The aim is to provide individual packages (courses and sessions) for people that meet individually assessed and agreed goals in order to promote further rehabilitation and re-enablement.

Outreach
This one to one service aims to provide the individual support, advice and education to each client that will enable the development of strategies to increase independence and to maintain as much independent living as possible.
It is also designed to ensure that each client develops, with our support, their own plan and goals based on their individual objectives to lead the life of their choice and be accepted and understood in their community. We also aim to support clients to return to education, volunteering or work based activity.

Campaigning & Education
We currently work alongside the emergency services aiming to reduce the incidence of acquired brain injury. We also undertake presentations and education sessions to educate people about the residual symptoms of brain injury and how it affects people in their everyday lives - please contact us for further information.
A national Acquired Brain Injury Awareness week is organised annually in May.
