Furry Friends Friday! 🐾

We loved welcoming the Dogs Trust to our dog‑friendly Edinburgh office this week.
Our Director, Julie Marshall, was so inspired by the team’s work that she’s now sponsoring the Golden Oldies—helping senior dogs receive the extra love, comfort and care they deserve. 💛

Thank you, Dogs Trust, for everything you do for dogs and the people who love them.
If you’d like to get involved, consider sponsoring a dog or the Golden Oldies programme—more details on the Dogs Trust website.

Capacity, deputies, controllers & Scottish guardianship: working together

Across the UK, the legal frameworks differ. In England & Wales, the Court of Protection appoints deputies, who are supervised against refreshed OPG deputy standards.

In Scotland, guardianship (financial and/or welfare) is granted by the sheriff court under the Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) Act and overseen by the Office of the Public Guardian (Scotland).

In Northern Ireland, a person’s property and financial affairs can be managed through a Controllership Order made by the High Court’s Office of Care and Protection (the OCP also registers Enduring Powers of Attorney). Health and welfare decisions are taken within the Mental Capacity Act (NI) 2016 framework, which is being commenced in phases and sets out principles and safeguards for decision‑making.

Part of our case management role is to support those entrusted with these powers as they make best‑interests decisions, to set out clear risk–benefit information, and to coordinate practical services—in line with each jurisdiction’s safeguards.

If you’re a guardian, controller, trustee or deputy balancing complex rehab and finances, we can help coordinate the practicalities.

Bridging the gap in head injury recovery: Standards and Support

The updated NICE head injury guidance highlights timely decisions (including TXA for suspected moderate/severe TBI), careful CT use for people on anticoagulants, and planned follow‑up for ongoing symptoms.

🎄 A Special Christmas Lunch with Our Amazing Team 🎄

Last week, we took a break from the busy end-of-year rush to enjoy our Christmas lunch together – and what a lovely afternoon it was!

It’s moments like these that remind us how lucky we are to have such a close-knit, supportive team. This year has been full of hard work, big challenges, and great achievements, and none of it would have been possible without the dedication and care each person brings to Case Management Services.

As we head into the festive season, we just want to say a huge thank you to our clients, colleagues, and partners for your trust and support throughout 2025.

From all of us here, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year – we can’t wait to see what 2026 brings!

(And yes, the food was every bit as good as the company! La Lanterna Glasgow you do not disappoint!)

Su***de awareness saves lives!

Yesterday, our Case Management team attended LivingWorks safeTALK: Su***de Alertness for Everyone training. This internationally recognised programme equips participants with the skills to identify signs of suicidal thoughts and connect individuals to appropriate support.

As case managers working with clients who have experienced life-changing injuries, we understand that emotional wellbeing is just as important as physical recovery. Traumatic injuries can lead to feelings of isolation, depression, and hopelessness, and being alert to these signs is vital in providing holistic care and potentially saving lives.

We pride ourselves on prioritising staff development and continuous professional learning. By enhancing our team’s awareness and confidence in addressing sensitive issues, we ensure that we can offer compassionate, informed support to those who need it most.

💙 Every life matters. Every conversation counts!

📣 A Major Step Forward for Spinal Cord Injury Care in the UK

This week, the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Spinal Cord Injury launched its final report at Westminster: "From Fragmented to Coordinated: Building a National Strategy for Spinal Cord Injury."

This landmark document calls for a 10-year national strategy to address the fragmented care system and ensure lifelong, equitable support for those living with spinal cord injuries.

As a case management service working with individuals with spinal cord injuries, we see first-hand the challenges people face — from delayed access to specialist rehabilitation, to unsuitable housing, and gaps in psychological support.

This report reflects what many of our clients experience daily. A coordinated, person-centred national strategy is not just overdue — it’s essential.

We welcome this important step and hope it leads to meaningful change 🤞

💙 A Welcome Return for Brain Injury Support in Renfrewshire 💙

Last Friday, Gemma Scullion from our team attended the launch of the new Quarriers Brain Injury Support Service in Renfrewshire.

Gemma started her career in Brain Injury at the original Renfrewshire Head Injury Service, and had always maintained a close contact with the service since joining our team in 2012. It was a shock to see it closed last year when funding was cut. This was a huge blow to survivors and carers across Renfrewshire.

Many of our own clients had previously accessed the service and greatly benefitted from the various opportunities and groups available, especially the peer support they received at 'The Sunshine Club'.

We are glad to see funding has been secured to open this new service. Gemma has been working closely with the new service lead Helen Stewart in linking in with all the various brain injury networks and sharing her expertise to help establish the new service. We’re proud to support the Quarriers Brain Injury Support Service as it launches and wish the team all the very best 🙌
