Every 90 seconds, someone in the UK is admitted to hospital with a brain injury. Isolation can be a lasting challenge of a brain injury. Headway’s free nurse-led Helpline provides emotional support, practical guidance & specialist information so survivors don’t face these challenges alone.

Brain injury can leave survivors feeling isolated, confused & unsupported. They may not be able to work or go out, leaving them feeling alone. The Winter period can exacerbate these challenges further; with reduced social contact and increased feelings of loneliness. Many individuals, their families and carers can often struggle to access timely, specialist advice when they need it most.

Headway UK will continually strive to reach more of those affected by brain injury. One way to do so is via Headway's free nurse-led Helpline, ensuring more people affected by brain injury can access specialist, compassionate support throughout the Winter period. Delivered by trained professionals with expertise across healthcare and rehabilitation, the Helpline provides emotional support, practical guidance, and signposting.
