What it asks

Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to introduce a separate and distinct health and community care client category of 'acquired brain injury' to ensure that people with acquired brain injury and their carers get the services and support they need and agencies can plan and deliver services more effectively.

What the petitioner did first

To try and resolve some of the difficulties we have told different people about Brain IAC and got people involved- including people from colleges, housing associations, and carers. We have identified gaps and problems in services. We have had a letter writing campaign with MSPs. We have met with Christine Flannery from the Managed Clinical Network for Acquired Brain Injury. We have asked for advice about the way forward for this from a range of Acquired Brain Injury organisations in Glasgow, and from a local MSP.
