History

From Crisis to Calling

In 2010, the Adeloye family entered a life-changing season after their daughter Abigail suffered a preventable brain injury. Their journey through intensive care, long-term support, and advocacy became the seed for OAKonsult Disabilities Outreach.

Abigail's Legacy

Faced with difficult prognoses, the family relocated to the UK for life-saving care and found purpose in service. From this experience, OAKonsult was founded so that no parent carer has to face disability care in isolation.

Though Abigail passed into glory in 2024, her courage and legacy continue through every family we support.
