Mission Statement

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

Our Values

We follow the social model of disability

We treat people as individuals with individual needs and work to remove the barriers that prevent people from playing a full part in society.

We identify and maximise potential

We work with staff, service users, volunteers, families and carers to provide opportunities to meet the needs of those we support.

We are professional

We conduct ourselves in a way that gains the respect and admiration of people inside and outside of our organisation.

We protect vulnerable adults

We are committed to ensuring that whilst using our services the risks to vulnerable people are minimised.

We respect each other

Everyone has a different, yet equally important role to play and we recognise and respect different skills and knowledge.

We are accountable

Everyone is accountable for their actions and were we to make a mistake we would do all we can to learn from it.

We are honest and trustworthy

We ensure that our actions are beyond reproach and we maintain confidentiality with those we work with and for.

We listen and learn

We ensure that our support and our services remain relevant to the needs of our clients, and of the highest quality by listening to the client, their families and other professionals.  This enables us to respond in an informed and effective manner to the ever-changing landscape of rehabilitation services in Nottinghamshire.

    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.

  • Referrals

    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.

  • Fundraising ideas

    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

    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

    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.
