Budget for brain injury Many local Headway charities, which support thousands of families affected by brain injury, are facing financial crises.
Headway – the brain injury association has relaunched this campaign calling on the Chancellor to commit to budgeting for brain injury in the upcoming autumn Budget on 30th October.
As part of Headway’s Budget for Brain Injury campaign – now in its fourth iteration –we strive to highlight the lack of funding available for essential community-based rehabilitation and reablement services for brain injury survivors across the UK.
Around 70 Headway groups across the country provide these vital services, and many are facing significant financial challenges.
The Government must address the urgent challenges facing community-based rehabilitation organisations providing essential services to individuals living with acquired brain injury. They are essential partners for the government in delivering vital services for survivors and their families, but support must be forthcoming without further delay.
