Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit&nbsp;the AXA PPP healthcare&nbsp;JustGiving page for the 3 Peaks Challenge, commencing on 10th June 2011.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>This year is an important year for us as not only are we attempting to climb the 3 highest peaks in England, Scotland and Wales, but we aim to do this within just 24 hours. We are supporting two charities this year, and this page is dedicated to supporting AXA PPP healthcare's chosen charity for 2011, Headway (Tunbridge Wells &amp; District).</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Headway are a registered charity providing information, support, and services to people who have sustained a brain injury, as well as their family and carers. They aim to provide social, leisure and therapeutic activities for brain injured people at Headway, to help achieve the highest possible level of functioning and quality of life. They also aim to provide respite for families and carers.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Headway are now established in a new home in the Culverden area of Tunbridge Wells after being told to leave the Pembury Hospital site in 2007. Headway get a grant from social services to look after the costs of the day therapists. The rest of the running of the centre is down to public donations (about 40% of their income).</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Please give generously to this worthwhile cause. We are also raising money for The 2simple Trust, a charity that helps the families of children diagnosed with Neuroblastoma, a common form of childhood cancer.
