Why your donation matters

Everyday more that 2,500 people in the UK suffer a brain injury this may be through accidents, assault, illness or disease. Once they leave hospital there is little statutory care provided. Headway Essex provides support through the Headway Day Centre in Colchester where rehabilitation activities take place, designed to help people to rebuild their lives after brain injury. The centre has 72 places available each week. We also have a Community Support Service that provides telephone support, information on the different aspects of brain injury, support groups, training for carers, specialist literature on brain injury, home and hospital visits and educational talks. Currently over 272 families are supported across Essex.
