A Worcestershire neuro rehab service has been recognised in the Central England Prestige Awards 2026/27.

IAB Neuro Rehab was named Neurological Rehabilitation Service of the Year for the county.

The service, founded by specialist neurological physiotherapist Iain Boyce, delivers tailored rehabilitation in clinics and patients’ homes for people living with complex neurological conditions.

Mr Boyce said: “I’m incredibly proud of this achievement for IAB Neuro Rehab and our team.

“Everything we do is driven by the difference we can make to our patients’ lives.

“Helping someone achieve something meaningful to them, whether that’s walking more confidently, regaining independence or enjoying time with their family, is what keeps us striving forward every day.

“This award is a fantastic milestone, and we’re only just getting started.”

The service supports individuals with conditions including stroke, brain injury, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury, and functional neurological disorder.

The team’s approach centres on personalised care, focusing on the goals that matter most to each patient.

Martin Bailey, a stroke survivor, said: “IAB Neuro Rehab’s expertise, compassion, and commitment have played a crucial role in my recovery.

“Their personalised approach and dedication to patient outcomes have helped me rebuild my life after stroke.”

Anne Bishop, who uses the service for multiple sclerosis, said the team helps restore not only function but also hope.

She said: “Beyond the physical improvements, the consistent encouragement, positivity, and problem-solving approach have made rehabilitation both effective and motivating.

“It’s not just about exercises – it’s about restoring belief in what’s possible.”

Mr Boyce added: “We have big ambitions for IAB Neuro Rehab and want to continue helping more people across Worcestershire access specialist neurological rehabilitation.

“Thank you to our patients and families for their trust, and to our team for their dedication. Let’s go, Team IAB!”
