We’re looking forward to our UCABI workshop for professionals next Tuesday in London. The in-person session is now full, but applications for our virtual January workshops are open: buff.ly/SL2Bf9U
Funded by @edendoratrust.bsky.social, supporting children affected by encephalitis + ABI.

Join us for our 12 Days of Hope countdown, starting next Monday!
Each day we’ll share stories, tips, and insights to celebrate families, children, and the power of support.
Get ready to open a little daily dose of hope this festive season, because every child deserves a good day.

This year, you helped us transform challenges into moments of strength for families navigating childhood-acquired brain injury.

Thank you for standing with us.

We were honoured to attend The Hospital Saturday Fund’s Charity Reception in Edinburgh! The grant CBIT received will strengthen our work with children and families affected by childhood-acquired brain injury, helping us continue elevating families and enriching futures across Scotland.

😴 Fatigue after an acquired brain injury isn’t just “tiredness.” It’s a deep exhaustion that can make even simple tasks feel overwhelming.

Our ABI Coordinators work with families and schools to create tailored rest plans, activity pacing, and tools to manage energy levels. 🧡

Step into Albie’s world and see how everyday moments are made easier with the right support. From morning routines to bedtime reflections, every small step counts. CBIT is here to help families find their way, one step at a time. 💜

Thank you so much for your support 💙

Resilience is the quiet strength that keeps you moving forward, one small step at a time. Perspective is what shifts when life changes in an instant, helping you see what truly matters. And Love is what carries families through the hardest days, binding them together with hope. ⭐

Every child’s journey with acquired brain injury is different; some may face challenges with memory, learning, or behaviour, while others might experience physical or emotional changes.
Together, we can navigate this journey, one step at a time. Because every child deserves the chance to thrive.

Thank you to Moore Barlow LLP for an incredible James Bond casino night that raised £6,000 for CBIT. Debbie and Cate loved meeting everyone and sharing Charlie’s story, from a severe childhood-acquired brain injury who's now rebuilding life with his family.

Caring for others starts with caring for yourself. 💛
During National Self Care Week, we want to remind parents and carers that your wellbeing matters too.
Through our community services, we offer family events, wellbeing sessions, and coffee mornings where carers can pause, connect, and recharge. 💜

Giving Tuesday is a moment to pause, reflect, + give back. It’s a celebration of kindness and community spirit, + we’d love for you to be part of it. By supporting CBIT, you help us continue providing vital support, information, and hope to families affected by childhood-ABI: buff.ly/lQVC7Gz

Pamela and Lauren from our Northern Ireland team visited Brendan Kearney & Company Solicitors to collect funds raised for one of our families. The team ran a raffle and Step Challenge to support children like Charlie. Huge thanks to Laura and her colleagues for choosing us as Charity of the Month!

Every child deserves the chance to learn, grow, and thrive. 💜 This Global Education Week, we’re shining a light on how education can empower children with acquired brain injuries to reach their full potential. Together, we’re building inclusive classrooms and brighter futures. 🌈
