Headway Somerset is a unique organisation helping people to live as independent a life as possible after brain injury, providing specialist support and therapy at its 3 Brain Injury Outreach Units. It provides essential respite care for family members who may end up being full-time unpaid carers.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Each year the staff and students in the School of Psychology at Plymouth University join together to raise money for a charity that supports individuals with psychological conditions. This year we will be supporting Headway Somerset.

Headway Somerset is part of the only brain injury charity in the UK. It provides social and cognitive rehabilitation for adults with brain injury, as well as support and respite care for their families through three Brain Injury Rehabilitation Centres based in Bridgwater, Henton and Yeovil.
