Headway East London is a charity supporting people affected by brain injury. Working across 13 London boroughs we offer specialist support and services for over 200 survivors, family, friends and carers in the local area each week.
We provide therapies, advocacy, family support and community support work alongside our day service: a venue where members can make the most of their abilities and interests. We believe that every one of our members has something to contribute to both Headway East London and the wider community. Our occupational projects include an art studio, music groups, and a professional kitchen.
We also promote awareness and understanding of brain injury by sharing information, running projects that bring our members and the public together, offering training to professionals and businesses, and acting as an educational resource for universities.
Our members say that Headway East London helps them to be themselves. They get the support they need with their human rights respected and upheld. They feel they belong.
Our services are designed around our members’ individual circumstances, needs and aspirations. And our staff and volunteers go above and beyond so that our members can live their best lives after brain injury.
