The ACP-UK supports the Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) Bill.  The ABI Bill, proposed by the Rt Hon Chris Bryant MP, highlights the need to provide sufficient services to adults and children who are living with brain injury.  ABI affects more than one million people in the UK.  The Bill calls for a comprehensive strategy, across all government departments, to support people living with ABI.  This will include much needed specialist neuro rehabilitation services.  The ACP-UK Neuropsychological Rehabilitation subgroup would like to encourage their members to show support for the ABI bill by writing to their MP highlighting the importance of passing this bill on the 3rd December.
