Welcome to Headway Plymouth

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.

It’s time for our annual open evening.

We know we just celebrated our garden opening, but a year has passed and it’s time to open our doors to our brilliant clients, their families and carers and the wonderful collaborators with whom we’ve partnered in the last 12 month.

Please come and see us on the evening on Thursday 20th August from 1700 - 1900. Meet the team and our trustees and learn about what we’ve been up to in the last 12 twelve months and our plans for the next year!

We’ll provide the drinks and a light buffet.

If you’d like to join us, drop a quick RSVP email to:

ceo@headwayplymouth.org.uk

so we can be sure to cater for everyone.

Looking forward to seeing you there. ... See MoreSee Less

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.
