Headway Jersey

It costs Headway £350k a year to provide all services, with only £29k per year provided by the Government of Jersey. Headway Jersey has grown from very small beginnings in 1997 and awareness of the work the charity does for those who are affected by brain injuries has increased greatly over this time. The Headway Centre is now seeing an increase in the number of referrals and the charity currently has over 150 survivors of brain injury registered with as members. Some members require occasional support, however up to 70 members access Headway's services on a weekly basis. These services are an essential lifeline for members and also provide support and respite to families and carers who need it most and include neuro-physiotherapy, cognitive therapy and advocacy amongst many others.
