A New Partnership to Support People with Brain Injuries
Headway Devon, a local charity based in Exeter, specializes in helping individuals rehabilitate from head injuries. The organization has partnered with Thompsons Solicitors, MAPS Benevolent Trust, and the Players of the Postcode Lottery to provide support to people with brain injuries.
Often, individuals with brain injuries are discharged from the hospital without adequate support, leaving them to navigate their recovery alone. As one might expect, the transition from a team of clinicians to solo recovery can be overwhelming.
You've spent months in hospital, in ICU, in rehabilitation with a team of clinicians around you and suddenly you're all alone.
Thanks to the new partnership, Headway Devon can now provide support to individuals in the hospital, reaching those who may not have known about the organization otherwise. This partnership aims to bridge the gap in support for people with brain injuries, ensuring they receive the help they need during their recovery.
- Headway Devon works with around 100 people weekly
- The organization aims to reach more individuals who have been discharged from the hospital without support
With the support of Thompsons Solicitors, MAPS Benevolent Trust, and the Players of the Postcode Lottery, Headway Devon can now provide more comprehensive support to people with brain injuries.
