Welcome to Headway 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 was a flippin’ fab pancake day at Headway House yesterday. Pancakes for all - created, made and flipped by our amazing clients.
Not sure what our paramedic placement student, Violet, made of it all on day two of her two weeks with us!
Just a reminder that it's our Family and Carers' Peer Support group at Headway House next Wednesday 25th February at 14:00 - 15:30.
Free and open to anyone in a relationship, living or friends with (or caring for) someone affected by an acquired brain injury.
The session is not for those who have a brain injury. We have separate peer support groups for men and women. Feel free to get in touch with us to discuss how we can support those living with an ABI.
If you like to join us for the group please book you place on our Eventbrite page by clicking on the link below:

Both happy and sad at the centre today. Our old faithful monster of a pool table has gone to a wonderful new home at Mount Wise Neighbourhood Centre - thanks so much to the Headway and MWNC teams for getting stuck into the move.
Thanks also to the fellas from Tamar trash - waste removal for turning out to help with the heavy lifting! T’was a beast.
…and don’t panic - thanks to some amazing donations, we have a replacement, fold away, pool table arriving tomorrow!

Fantastic fundraising work being done by our friends at Livewell Foundation!
❤️What better way to mark #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek than a shout-out to the incredible team of Livewell Legends at Next Generation Nursing and Care.
Kim and co are fundraising for Plym Bridge House, a specialist young people’s mental health unit that provides care and support for 12–18-year-olds experiencing serious mental health challenges here in Plymouth.
They'll be spending #NationalWalkingMonth in May up, out and about with colleagues and clients clocking up the steps to raise money for Plym Bridge House towards a much needed nurturing sensory space on site.
