Volunteer with us

What could you do with three hours? Watch three episodes of the latest must-see series. Go out for a meal. Interact on social media. All very enjoyable to do, but will any of those positively impact your local community and simultaneously enhance your sense of self-worth? Volunteering with Headway Nottingham will, and three hours a week is all we need from you.
What is brain injury?
Referrals

At Headway Nottingham we accept referrals from all sources, be that a self referral to a referral from a professional health or social care worker. Once the referral is made we will make contact with the individual or their carer and work with them to formulate a suitable plan of progression.

Where we work

At Headway Nottingham we offer support to people who live in the City of Nottingham and the County of Nottinghamshire.
Mission Statement

The principle objectives of Headway Nottingham are to promote the understanding of all aspects of brain injury. To provide information, support and services to those living in Nottinghamshire who have sustained a brain injury, along with their families and carers.

Fundraising ideas

You don't need to be an athlete to raise money for us (although if you're feeling energetic have a look here!) you just need a passion to make life better for people affected by brain injury and a can-do attitude! Whatever piques your interest, let us know and we'll help you along the way!
Support for carers

Brain injury doesn't just affect the person living with the condition, it also affects those around them. Family, friends and loved ones also have to adjust to life after brain injury and it can be very difficult.
Activities and workshops

We run an extensive and innovative timetable of activities and workshops all aimed towards the longer term rehabilitation after brain injury. We hope to help you with the educational, physical, social, cognitive, emotional and social aspects of your recovery.
