Dragon Boat Festival · 10 June 2018

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

Foot Anstey and Enable Law are entering a team for this year's Headway Somerset Charity Dragon Boat Race. This will be our sixth year in a row with varying success and no one in the river... yet!

Headway Somerset is an independent charity who provide social and cognitive rehabilitation for adults with brain injury and support and respite for their families through their three Brain Injury Rehabilitation centres based in Bridwater, Henton and Yeovil.

The charity take referrals for anyone over the age of 16 and provide a range of individually tailored programmes designed to maximise their quality of life, independence and self esteem. They also work closely with family members who are often the main carers, which can be very stressful and can lead to family breakdown due to the issues related to living with brain injury.

So where will your money go?

£10 - buys just over an hour of rehabilitation time.

£20 - funds a client to attend one of our brain injury centres for a half day including lunch.

£50 - funds a carer and relative group for newly diagnosed patients.

£100 - will pay for 4 weeks of the assessment programme or 4 hours client intensive therapy.

if you wish to sponsor one of our team members please be sure to name the person you wish to donate to. Team 'Foot Anstey' has a group target of £2,000 to raise before June 10th, so please dig deep in your pockets and help us with this worthy cause!
