Headway Oxfordshire

An independent charity that supports people affected by brain injury throughout Oxfordshire. Headway Oxfordshire's foremost goal is to raise awareness of brain injury. From the various causes of brain damage, to the huge variation in how the effects of brain damage manifest in patients, Headway Oxfordshire believes that a more informed world is a more caring world. Brain injuries (including stroke and other neurological conditions) strike people of all ages, from all walks of life and in a variety of situations. Due to enhanced knowledge and treatment, more people are surviving than ever before making brain injury the fastest growing cause of disability among young people in the UK. We offer a range of services to support you and help speed up your recovery; from physical and mental therapy, to vocational support and training. These activities are all designed to complement a formal rehabilitation program. Caring for someone with brain injury can be a tremendous responsibility. We offer a range of services to help and support carers, along with providing advice and education on how best to help their loved ones recovery. Find out more by visiting our website.
