We were delighted to receive these photos from one of our case managers, Claire Rhodes-Andrews, capturing a lovely Easter bonnet competition.

Claire and Isla had the important job of choosing the winner, and they certainly had a challenge on their hands. Every bonnet looked fantastic, with so much creativity and effort on display.

A special thank you to Mum Becky for providing the hamper, which made the occasion even more memorable.

Thank you for sharing this with us, Claire. 🐇 🌸 🐣

Last year, all our case managers successfully achieved registration with the Institute of Registered Case Managers. We are now one year on, and it's time to renew registration. One of our Directors, Andrew Rose, was the first to renew. He told us the process was very simple, which is good to know.

He also told us - 'maintaining IRCM registration is not simply about process; it’s a principle. He sees it as a way to actively support the development of national standards and add to a profession that is continuously evolving. At its core, it is about protecting the public and making sure that those accessing case management services can do so with confidence.

A trusted professional register provides that assurance. It demonstrates that individuals and organisations are working safely and ethically, with a commitment to continuous improvement.'

Well done, Andrew. We are proud to share your certificate. 👏

We often share updates from Headway - the brain injury association because we see firsthand the vital role they play in supporting individuals and families affected by brain injury.

We were recently pleased to hear about a fantastic fundraising effort led by Headway Nottingham. On Sunday, 27th April, one of their Trustees, Greg, will be taking on the London Marathon, covering the full 26.2 miles to raise funds for people in the local community whose lives have been impacted by brain injury.

We wish Greg every success on the day and look forward to following his journey. If you would like to sponsor Greg, here is the link https://2026tcslondonmarathon.enthuse.com/pf/greg-almond

Our latest blog - Strengthening safeguarding practice across AKA Case Management.

At AKA Case Management, safeguarding is not a standalone obligation; it’s a fundamental part of how we deliver safe, effective and accountable support to the individuals and families we work with.

In March, our entire team undertook Level 3 safeguarding training for adults and children. To ensure the training was accessible to all, we delivered an online session for colleagues who were unable to travel to Nottingham. The week after, we held a face-to-face training day at our HQ, enabling full engagement across all roles within the organisation.

What stood out most was the team’s joint commitment. From case managers to administrative colleagues, everyone took part. https://www.akacasemanagement.com/strengthening-safeguarding-practice-across-aka-case-management/
