🎉 Giving Back announcement! 🎉 Our latest Giving Back winner is Monika Humagain, a Solicitor at Harringtons in Birmingham. Monika nominated Save the Children UK @savechildrenuk to receive a £500 donation from AlphaBiolabs. Monika said: “As a Solicitor practising children and family law, I see first-hand how vulnerable children can be when their basic needs and rights are not met. Save the Children UK has a great record of making a real difference in children's lives. Contributing to this charity’s work aligns with my belief that all children deserve a fair start in life.” Jessica Walker, Regional Corporate Lead at Save the Children UK, said: “Thank you to both Monika and AlphaBiolabs for generously supporting our work in the UK and overseas. We depend on donations such as this to help create a world where all children are fed, cared for and treated fairly."

An estimated 37% of children in care are living apart from at least one sibling, according to the Children's Commissioner for England. This is known as the "siblingship gap", and DNA testing can play an important part in closing it. Where paternity is unclear or unconfirmed, uncertainty over biological relationships can stand in the way of sibling placements, and of aunts, uncles or grandparents being considered as kinship carers. Complex relationship DNA testing (sibling, grandparent, avuncular) gives social workers and local authorities the evidence to move Viability Assessments, SGOs and CAOs forward. Read our latest blog to learn more about how DNA testing can support sibling placements and help unlock kinship care placements for the wider family. 👉 alphabiolabs.co.uk/blog/siblingsh… #FamilyLaw #DNATesting

Nearly 10,000 alcohol-specific deaths were registered in the UK in 2024; still significantly higher than pre-pandemic levels, despite a fall from the record high in 2023. For those working in family proceedings and safeguarding, Alcohol Awareness Week (6–12 July) is a useful moment to revisit what different alcohol tests can and can't establish, and when each is most appropriate. Our latest blog covers the latest data on alcohol misuse in the UK, the signs of misuse, and a breakdown of the types of alcohol tests available.

Each month, we randomly select a colleague, who then chooses a charity to receive a £100 donation from AlphaBiolabs as part of our commitment to giving back. This month, one of our colleagues, Alex Morgan, nominated Merseyside Domestic Violence Service (MDVS) to receive the donation. 💙 MDVS provides essential support, advice and educational programmes to women, girls and families affected by domestic abuse - helping to break the cycle of abuse and support recovery. We’re proud to make this donation in support of such an important cause. #MDVS #AlphaBiolabs #GivingBack #Charity #Community
