For #OTweek24, we invited the people we support to explore meaningful occupations and reflect on barriers and enablers through the Kawa model. One participant shared, “I got a lot out of that, I felt happy and got a lot of my chest".
#occupationaltherapy makes a difference! 💜

⭐️⭐️Our Biggest Summit Yet!⭐️⭐️
Our UKABIF summit on 4th November, attracted 350 delegates with an interest in Acquired Brain Injury.
As well as hearing from the line-up of speakers throughout the day, delegates had the opportunity to speak to almost 40 exhibitors including legal firms, physiotherapists, charities and tech companies who offered a wealth of information, advice and goodies for the attendees.
It was also a wonderful opportunity for delegates to make new connections and network, which can only help in our commitment to improving the lives of everyone with an acquired brain injury.
A huge thank you to all of our sponsors; @slatergordon, @irwinmitchell, @cygnet and @leighday - we could not have done this without your support!

Received the loveliest message from someone after @UKABIF on Monday re the @HeadsTogether presentation which included the phrase that it “made her proud to be a social worker”. This fills my heart with joy, what an impact to have on someone 😍 @CarolineJBald @dralysonnorman
