Charity shops

Headway charity shops sell a fantastic range of quality products at affordable prices. This helps us to raise the money we need to continue our frontline services, like our freephone nurse-led helpline, to ensure that we can be there for brain injury survivors and their families.

Recycling your pre-loved items does much more than simply declutter your house.  It also benefits the environment, supports local shoppers, and everything you donate and Gift Aid helps us to improve life after brain injury.
