That the Parliament welcomes the launch of Headway Clyde’s new free national Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) ID Card service, offering potentially lifesaving support to around 500,000 people in Scotland living with or affected by acquired brain injury; recognises that the personalised cards provide essential medical information and emergency contact details, helping prevent misunderstandings and ensuring that people receive appropriate assistance when needed; encourages greater awareness and uptake of the cards across Scotland, and commends Headway Clyde, Irwin Mitchell Scotland LLP and the family of Irene Morrice for making this initiative available free of charge.
