Headway East London

Brain injury can affect memory, communication, mobility, emotions and identity, leaving many people isolated and struggling to navigate everyday life. At our fully accessible Hackney centre, members take part in art, music, exercise, gardening, cooking and peer support, while our specialist teams provide one-to-one support, therapy, hospital outreach and practical advice for survivors and their families. We believe recovery is about much more than medical rehabilitation. Through meaningful activities, friendships and opportunities to contribute, our members rediscover their strengths and rebuild fulfilling lives. Whether someone is returning home from hospital or living with the long-term effects of brain injury, Headway London offers a place to belong, grow and thrive. We're grateful for every donation, volunteer and corporate partner who helps make this life-changing work possible.
