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.
We’ve filed our year end 2025 accounts at Companies House and the Charity Commission. Below you can read and download the Annual Report that accompanies those accounts. The accounts themselves can be read and downloaded at the Charity Commission website here

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.
