Law firm Lime Solicitors has reinforced its dedication to supporting the Child Brain Injury Trust (CBIT) through a strategic partnership with the national charity.

As part of the year-long partnership, Lime Solicitors will fund four families to go through counselling sessions, facilitate CBIT-organised family experience days out, and enable the charity to provide its vital support service to families in hospital throughout the year.

CBIT was established in 1991 by a group of health professionals to research and provide information regarding the effects of traumatic injury on a child’s developing brain. Today, the charity provides emotional and practical support, information and learning opportunities for families and professionals affected by childhood-acquired brain injury across the UK.

Amelia Larard, head of marketing and fundraising at CBIT, said: “We are thrilled to have Lime Solicitors as a strategic partner. Our strategic partnerships programme highlights our connection to organisations with likeminded values and outcomes for children with acquired brain injuries.

“Our strategic partnership with Lime Solicitors will help to support key elements in the delivery of our service, and it will help us to make a difference in the everyday lives of the families we support at the Child Brain Injury Trust. We are really proud of this meaningful collaboration.”

The partnership builds upon Lime Solicitors’ long-standing support of CBIT. For the third consecutive year, the firm will be a headline sponsor and take a leading role in the organisation of The CBIT Games 2024 as it continues to grow year on year.

Additionally, for the second year running, Lime Solicitors will support the charity’s casino night, Licence to Spin and host a Bollywood dance evening later in the year. The firm is committed to continue fundraising for the charity, raising its profile and encouraging collaboration in order to do so.

Vicky Blodwell, serious injury partner at Lime Solicitors, said: “It is a privilege to have strengthened our partnership with CBIT. Through this collaboration, we aim to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children living with brain injury and their families, helping them to navigate the challenges they face and empowering them to build brighter futures.

“As specialists in brain injury claims, we are always looking to partner with like-minded organisations and charities that provide invaluable support to those affected by this type of traumatic injury. We truly believe that better outcomes can be achieved for everyone when we all work together.”

This collaboration adds to Lime Solicitors’ partnerships and close work with other charities, including The Katie Piper FoundationSpinal Injuries AssociationRoadPeace and Derbyshire Blood Bikes.
