Mission Statement
Headway East London is a community of people discovering the fullness of life after brain injury. Working across 13 London boroughs for over 25 years, we offer specialist support and services for over 800 survivors, family, friends, and carers annually. We are a buzzing community where people connect, collaborate, and participate. We support our members (as we call our service users) to develop self-identities - friend, artist, dancer, singer, chef, domino player - located in the present and future rather than the past.
About This Cause
Our services, including Day Service, Community Support, Therapy, and Casework, are tailored to meet individual needs and aspirations. We promote awareness and understanding of brain injury through sharing our member’s stories, members delivering training to organisations, and community engagement projects. We alleviate the burden on non-specialist services and maximize the effective use of public resources. The only specialist provider in London, we provide the primary source of support to people facing multiple disadvantages in addition to what is often a hidden disability. Our volunteers, members, their families, and carers are the experts of brain injury. Together we work in partnership to achieve transformative change for survivors - to build a world in which people with brain injury are valued, respected and able to fulfil their potential.
