is a registered charity providing information, support, and
services to people who have sustained a brain injury, their family
and carers.

brain injured people at Headway, to help achieve the highest possible
level of functioning and quality of life.
We aim to provide respite for families and carers.

injury, through to the stage when the brain injured person is in
the community or in residential care. Our support and outreach
services can involve the brain injured person, his or her carers,
medical rehabilitation and other professionals.
