Small stories, big picture

Our brain injury experience,

Are you a professional working with survivors of brain injury?

Are you interested in how to improve your services by learning from people with lived experience?

We are excited to present the second edition of our Headway East London brain injury conference.

This year, we will focus on myth-bursting and challenging misconceptions about brain injury. You will hear from expert by experience and Dr Mark Holloway – researcher and Brain Injury Case Manager at Head First, about the often-hidden challenges of living with a brain injury, with opportunities to ask questions and join panel discussion.

Don’t miss our interactive workshops, and enjoy lunch and refreshments provided by the Headway Kitchen crew.
