This year’s theme shines a spotlight on the often-overlooked gaps in brain injury support—from diagnosis to rehabilitation, and long after discharge. Too many individuals and families face fragmented care, limited access to resources, and a lack of long-term support that truly meets their needs.
At Headway Lincolnshire, we believe it's time to bridge those divides. The 2026 conference will bring together experts, survivors, carers, and professionals to explore how we can close the gaps and build a more connected, compassionate system of care.
