Lobbying

Whilst here to support those who have suffered the implications of brain injury, Headway Surrey is also very concerned with preventing such injury in the first place.  By emphasising safety at all times it is hoped that the incidence of brain injury can be greatly reduced.

Headway Surrey aims to:

• Increase public awareness  and understanding of brain injury
• Campaign to improve statutory services for people with brain injury
• Seek recognition of brain injury as a disability in its own right
• Promote co-ordinated multi-disciplinary approaches to brain injury assessment, acute care, rehabilitation, community re-entry and continual assessment with clear accountability at all stages
• Promote activities that aim to reduce the incidence of brain injury
