Opportunity for brain injury professionals to share ideas in transformative times

Case managers, clinicians, therapists and other brain injury professionals will gather virtually later this month for a national conference.

The 18th annual brain injury conference, hosted by law firm Hugh James on Wednesday 18 November, will feature discussions on how the COVID-19 pandemic is affecting patients and claims; plus challenges in paediatric neurorehabilitation and the latest on lobbying for improvements for all living with acquired brain injury.

Specialist consultants, psychologists, nurses, lawyers, and academics will all come together to share their expertise and insights around the current issues impacting their field.

The free event takes place on Wednesday 18 November between 10am-12:30pm and will be of interest to clinicians, healthcare professionals, therapists, social workers, case managers and charity workers.

Speakers include senior leaders from Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospital, and the UK Acquired Brain Injury Forum.

Andrew Harding, partner and head of the Hugh James Neurolaw team, said: “Every year, we’re honoured and delighted to bring together some of the most influential and remarkable people who dedicate their lives to the service and rehabilitation of those who affected by brain injury.

“Events like these provide opportunities for professionals to reflect and learn from each other. Even though the COVID-19 pandemic prevents us from meeting face to face, we’re pleased we can still provide a forum for sharing knowledge and good practice in this important arena.”
