What is Hats for Headway?

Hats for Headway is a fun campaign in May to raise awareness and funds for people living with brain injuries.

At Headway Norfolk and Waveney, we’re running our own version with a twist:

Not everyone wants to post a photo online in a hat- and that’s okay! So we’ve created a way for anyone to take part, whether you’re up for a silly selfie or prefer to stay behind the scenes.

How to Take Part (It’s Easy!)

Step 1: Donate £5 right here on this page. Every £5 = 1 entry into our prize draw.

Step 2: (Optionally) wear your best hat, take a photo, and tag us on social media- but it’s totally up to you! You can take part with or without sharing a photo.

Step 3: Sit back and feel great for supporting people living with acquired brain injuries across Norfolk and Waveney!

The Prize

Everyone who donates is entered into a random draw to win an overnight stay for two at Dunston Hall, including dinner*.

Remember, every £5 donation counts as an entry e.g. Donate £20 = 4 entries.

The winner will be drawn on Friday 30th May 2025 and contacted directly. Remember, not to donate anonymously. We need to be able to contact you.

Why It Matters

Every penny you give helps us continue supporting people living with the long-term effects of brain injury.

Your donation – big or small – will help change lives.
