Headway East Kent was established in 1989 to serve the needs of the head injured and their families. We have five day centres in East Kent; Canterbury, Ashford, Dover, Folkestone and Thanet, where we provide social rehabilitation activities for adults age 18 upwards. Many people find it extremely difficult to return to community living after a head injury and can become socially isolated, losing the support of family or friends along the way. Headway East Kent aim to help people on their journey towards achieving new goals and regaining lost skills. A head injury does not just affect the person but the whole family and carers need support to manage all the changes that can occur. Headway East Kent holds regular carers meetings which provide a much needed point of information sharing and a place to speak with others who really understand.
Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust serves a culturally and socially diverse population of 1.2 Million people, some of whom live in areas of high deprivation, low income and unemployment. Each year over 50,000 people are seen by our services, from not only the Midlands area but also nationally for some of our more specialist services. In any given year 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem and although the majority will be seen in the local community, the more serious long term cases are referred to the Trust. We operate from 60 sites throughout the Birmingham and Solihull areas to provide a wide range of inpatient, community and specialist mental health services for service users of all ages. From young people aged over 16, right through to providing mental health care and treatment for older adults. Together, these services include elements of rehabilitation, crisis and home treatment, assertive outreach, early intervention, addictions, day services and mental health wellbeing. Whilst our work covers many areas and can often be complex, our aim is simple ‘Improving Mental Health Wellbeing’. The Trusts charitable fund ‘Caring Hands’ directly raises money for the service users, carers and staff of the Trust. Helping to provide the extras that normal NHS funding does not provide, such as equipment, specialised furniture, research and service users events. Your support of our fundraisers is greatly appreciated as the money they raise will significantly improve the experience of the people who use our services.
