Our long-term charity partner, QEF provides a range of expert services that enable disabled children and adults to achieve their potential and live their lives as independently as possible.
Some of their services include expert neuro rehabilitation and nursing care to help regain core skills following an acquired neurological disability or complex neurological illness. This includes driving assessments, mobility advice and driving lessons to support disabled people and those with age-related impairments. There is also disability awareness training for organisations plus practical support and advice for disabled people considering flight.
This year QEF, in conjunction with a handful of selected legal service providers, has developed a Legal Information Service which will enable all QEF clients, as well as their family and friends, access to specialist advice, information and guidance.
QEF wants to enable information access to all. This could include clients pursuing a claim for welfare benefits or compensation, to those seeking an understanding employment rights or post brain injury clients needing help navigating complex legal, financial and welfare issues.
QEF are looking for specialist solicitors to join their directory to facilitate with this. In addition, QEF would like to speak to potential referrers, case managers and specialists in personal injury and medical negligence so that we can discuss our work further with you.
