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.
They have partnered with Thompsons Solicitors, MAPS Benevolent Trust, and the Players of the Postcode Lottery to provide support to people with brain injuries.
You've spent months in hospital, in ICU, in rehabilitation with a team of clinicians around you and suddenly you're all alone.
After discharge, individuals may struggle to understand their brain injury and navigate the legal process for compensation.
Headway Devon currently works with around 100 people, but many more go home alone without support.
Thanks to the new partnership, Headway Devon can now provide support in hospitals, reaching more individuals in need.
