Acquired brain injury consultation now open

25 June 2025

We’re seeking your feedback on our upcoming guidance on acquired brain injury before noon on 21 July 2025

The RCSLT guidance on acquired brain injury is currently being updated and is now in it’s feedback stage where our members, organisations which work with people living with an acquired brain injury and members of the public can review the draft guidance and share their opinions. We’d particularly like to hear from people who have an acquired brain injury as well as their families, to help ensure that the guidance also answers the questions, provides first rate information and takes into account the views and opinions of people with lived experience.

The guidance will be split into recommendations for SLTs and information for members of the public. This guidance will eventually replace our current guidance on brain injury.
