Our latest news and events
Hats for Headway is great way to raise awareness of the work Headway Shropshire does in our annual celebration.
The idea is very simple, all we ask you to do is wear a hat on 18th May to show your support. We would encourage you to wear a hat that is crazy and bizarre but this is not compulsory, we just want you to have fun.
Ask all your colleagues, friends and family to wear a hat for the day to raise awareness and donate £1 to Headway Shropshire

Why not have a royal theme with the Wedding of Harry and Megan being on the following day
It would be great if you can share your phots on social media to show your support for the work our team does.

Carers Support Group
Dates for your diary 2018
Headway Shropshire has grown to such an extent in recent years. With this in mind the need for carers support, information and guidance is much greater. We at Headway Shropshire would like to welcome you to join our carers group which is held at Headway Shropshire on dates stated below.
The effects of Acquired Brain Injury are so wide, so unique and also often invisible that many carers, family members and friends find it difficult to get the support they need. What Carers have in common with each other is the need to share stories and know that people really listen and understand. Our carers group is to meet other people in the same situation, to value each other’s ideas and experiences, to have a break and to get practical information.
