Welcome to Headway's Tynedale  site in the North East!

We want to help people understand about brain injury.  We provide information, support and services to people with a brain injury, their family, carers and professionals.
 
A network of Groups and Branches across the UK provide an opportunity to talk to others in a similar situation.  Members can receive practical help and support in coping with the challenges they are experiencing, find out what local services are available, and share in the emotional roller-coaster that is life with a brain injury.
 
Across the UK, there are more than 60 Headway Centres.  These facilities are run in a relaxed and welcoming environment.  They help brain injury survivors to learn new skills, regain lost ones and re-integrate into society.  Headway Centres also provide much needed respite for families and carers.

Where are we.

HeadwayTynedale opened a new drop-in facility on 15 October 2007 at:
 
Tanners' House,  20 Gilesgate,  Hexham,  Northumberland,  NE46
 
The Centre opens every Wednesday from 11:00 to 15:00.  It offers Pool, Computer Games, Card Games, Chess, Dominoes or just a drink and a chat.
