Exciting New Studio Project

In February, Headway was presented a cheque for £5000 by John Surtees and the Racing Steps Foundation, towards building a studio in the garden in memory of Henry Surtees who was sadly killed in an accident at Brands Hatch last July. This latest cheque followed donations made by the Surtees family and other mourners following Henry’s death.

May Update:


The Studio that is being planned in memory of Henry Surtees, who was sadly killed in an accident at Brands Hatch last July, is well underway. Plans are being submitted to the Planning Department in May. We look forward to seeing this project progress and thank the Surtees family for their generosity in enabling us to make this new building a reality.

We will keep you updated as the project progresses.
