Our vibrant and welcoming centre in devonport, plymouth

Who are we?

Headway Plymouth is an independent, non-profit charity with over 35 years of experience in supporting individuals, families and carers affected by acquired brain injury (and the professionals who work with them).

Our mission is to help survivors regain independence and improve their quality of life through specialist social and cognitive rehabilitation and re-enablement.

We provide tailored support for adults with brain injuries, as well as respite and guidance for their families and carers. Our services include centre-based rehabilitation, group programmes and one-to-one outreach support – all designed to promote independence, self-esteem and overall well-being.

Letters from Louise - July 2026

Our wonderful client Louise has, once again, dedicated a lot of time and effort to journalling her way through the host of activities she enjoyed across the month of July. Thanks Louise – they’re always a lovely read – despite what you say about Craig!

Letters from Louise

With rain in Plymouth today (the plants desperately needed it) - how great to have the day brightened up by this lovely post from our great friends at the Doocey Group.

Eternal thanks again to all the team who gave some much time and effort to support Headway Plymouth and Babcock International Group create our first ever outside garden space.

Just a big shout out to the “This Is Us” neurodiversity festival taking place in our very own Devonport Park on Saturday 19th September 2026 organised by the brilliant teams at Devlin Trust CIC and Diverse Events CIC

We were there for the first and we’re trying to get there with a Headway Plymouth stand for this year’s event!

The amazing Jeremy Carr completes his fundraising challenge for Headway Plymouth

He did it! And he did it in the heat

Jeremy smashed his fundraising cycling challenge at the Dartmoor Classic.

Jeremy is the incredible survivor of a brain aneurysm on 30 April 2025. Last month, in the sweltering heat, he took on the challenge of a 45 mile cycle ride across Dartmoor to raise vital funds for Headway Plymouth.

  • Life is amazing and fun when you turn up to Headway Plymouth!
  • Help when you need it with body and mind. Having fun with people like myself. The volunteers are so good with everyone.
  • I love the flexibility of being able to come on other days for activities I’d really like. The monthly ABI awareness sessions are super helpful and worthwhile.
  • Headway Plymouth really helped with the concentration and obviously there’s sessions and activities as well. Being there has contributed to my concentration growing.
  • Headway Plymouth has helped, not just with the brain injury side but given more confidence in meeting new people.

  • Instead of the same thing week in week out, I do something different. I wouldn’t have gone to the aquarium and I wouldn’t have visited to the Box.
