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.
