How could you get involved?

Do you represent a grant-maker of any size, a local business or community group? Does your employer have a charitable giving scheme?

We welcome visits to our centre in Bilborough, Nottingham so you can witness the need for your support and how funded projects make a sustainable and significant difference to local lives affected by brain injury.

Whatever the size of your organisation, you can change lives for the better by...

supporting one of our existing innovative and essential rehabilitation projects, or helping us develop new ones based on evidenced need
funding or contributing to the community-based support provided by our Outreach Worker who provides practical support and ensures people who have suddenly acquired disabilities following brain injury do not spiral into poverty
underpinning all our vital work by making a contribution towards our core costs; funding our small but amazing Support Work team or simply helping us to keep the lights on!

If you could help us, please contact [email protected] or 0115 9679669 to begin our journey!

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.
