Joining ABIL
ABIL is operating in a context where a number of government policies recommend better and joined-up services for people who have had a brain injury and their relatives and carers – in particular the National Service Framework for Long-term (Neurological) Conditions (2005) and the White Paper ‘Our health, our care, our say’ (2006) and ‘Putting people first: a shared vision and commitment to the transformation of adult social care’ (2007).
We feel strongly that ABIL must have representation from all stakeholders with an interest in improving brain injury services across London. We want to provide an effective means for all involved to network and share information and ideas.
Thus we encourage, and are actively seeking, membership and involvement from colleagues in health, social services, housing, law, employment services, etc, in the private and voluntary sectors, working in this field at all stages of the care pathway, together with brain injury survivors and their relatives and carers.
