Story

We are Leonard Cheshire supporting individuals to live, learn and work as independently as they choose, whatever their ability.

Leonard Cheshire is developing a brand new service offering specialist support to people in Northern Ireland with an alcohol-related brain injury (ARBI) and we need your help.

ARBI describes the damage caused to the brain as a result of chronic alcohol consumption - this can significantly impact a person's ability to perform normal day-to-day activities.

Our residential treatment centre will be the first of its kind throughout Ireland - you'll be able to find our Leonard Cheshire service in Belfast by March 2020.

Chronic alcohol consumption is estimated to cost Northern Ireland £900 million each year including £250 million of our health spending. Northern Ireland's Chief Medical Officer has warned that alcohol misuse is one of our greatest public health issues. ARBI is a reversible condition and up to 75% of patients can make partial or complete recovery if given personalised treatment and care. Such support can really make a difference to the lives of many in Northern Ireland, achieving better patient outcomes, cost savings and significant reductions in recurring hospital admissions.

By joining our corporate partners programme, you can help us raise £100,000 by March 2020 to support the pioneering treatment of people in Northern Ireland with ARBI. Your business will have brand opportunities in pre-launch and launch media as well as extensive social media coverage. For platinum partners, we offer a guest speaking opportunity at a prestigious launch event in April 2020, coverage in our annual report and a plaque in the ARBI unit.
