A Year of Giving: Celebrating Our 2025 Charitable Highlights
At ILS Case Management, giving back is more than a tradition—it’s part of who we are. Every year, we’re inspired by the courage and compassion of our clients, colleagues, and referrers, and by the charities that provide vital support to people living with catastrophic injuries and complex conditions.
This year has been full of moments that remind us what community really means. From marathons and mountain climbs to daring descents and festive campaigns, we’ve been proud to stand behind those making a difference.
Early in the year, we joined the Hats for Headway campaign—an annual favourite that raises awareness for people living with brain injury. Soon after, we supported Harry’s Hydrocephalus Awareness Trust (Harry’s HAT), a small but mighty charity working tirelessly to improve detection and treatment for children with paediatric hydrocephalus—after Katherine Pearce of Davies & Partners Solicitors highlighted their brilliant work.
As spring unfolded, we cheered on fundraisers taking on incredible challenges: Rob Antrobus from Enable Law ran the London Marathon for Headway Plymouth, while Hayley Woolf from CL Medilaw tackled her own marathon for The Rainbow Centre. We also celebrated half-marathon heroes like Caroline Klage from Bolt Burdon Kemp for Cerebra and Dawn Humphries from Lanyon Bowdler for Horatio’s Garden, creating restorative spaces for people after spinal injury.
May brought AvMA’s 50 Miles in May challenge, and Team ILS enjoyed taking part—covering miles together to support the charity’s work helping those affected by medical accidents. Later in the year, we were inspired by Abby Foster, our Support Services Administrator, as she prepared for the South West Coast 50 Ultra Challenge in memory of her mum, raising funds for Salisbury Hospice Charity.
Summer and autumn saw even more extraordinary efforts: two friends, Lewis and Toby, ran the entire length of Ireland—550km in eleven consecutive ultra-marathons—for the Rosie Jones Foundation, after Paige Newbould of Enable Law highlighted their incredible mission. Our client Amie prepared for a triathlon-style challenge for Ability Dogs 4 Young People, and the team at Irwin Mitchell LLP abseiled from the helipad at Royal London Hospital to support London’s Air Ambulance Charity. We also applauded Hannah Carr and the Moosa Duke Solicitors team for their 10-mile Peak District walk for the Cauda Equina Champions Charity.
To round off the year, we launched our 12 Days of Christmas charitable giving campaign, inviting referrers to nominate charities close to their hearts. From Rose Road Association and Smile4Wessex to West Country Hawks Wheelchair Club, The Wave Project, and more, each nomination highlighted the incredible work happening across the UK. Following a staff vote, our final festive donation went to Crisis, supporting their mission to end homelessness.
Every donation and challenge this year has reflected our commitment to supporting the charities and causes that make a real difference to the people we work with. Thank you to everyone whose efforts we’ve been proud to stand behind. We look forward to continuing this support in the year ahead.
