Founded in 1972 by Keith Pennock for his own daughter, and with the first clinic established at Rugeley in Staffordshire, bibic soon saw a period of rapid growth and needed a new and much larger home. In 1976 we moved to Knowle Hall, Bridgwater in Somerset.

Previously we were associated with the Institutes for Achievement of Human Potential in Philadelphia and initially became the British Institute for Brain Injured Children in the UK.

The range of conditions and the methods of support soon evolved into our own methods as service delivery centred around the bibic developmental holistic therapies and programmes delivered by our own highly skilled therapists.

We have moved on since the early days and, in June 1996, bibic became not only a registered charity but also a private limited company known as “bibic” and not as the former British Institute for Brain Injured Children. This former full title did not fully reflect our scope of work.

bibic now works globally with families from within the UK and beyond. We have even trained therapists to bibic standards for Holland and have commenced discussion with other services to provide and share our knowledge.

Through all this, we remain true to our ethos of children and families first and working with a range of sensory, behavioural and learning conditions by assessing abilities and providing practical solutions and programmes for families to deliver themselves.

We are proud to have been doing this for over 37 years.
