Welcome to a team of 5 from @Selwood, part of The Workdry Group, who have come along to Leighton House today for their corporate volunteer day.
This is the first time they have joined us and so we hope they enjoy their day weeding & painting, and learning more about @HeadwayBS.

Here is Community Outreach client Jim enjoying a brisk walk to the shops with his usual humour! Jim is working on one of his new goals; taking a shopping list from his wife, going to the shops and finding the items.

CO client Sue enjoys her support sessions on Saturdays. Last week Sue and her support worker visited Cob House Country Park for a drink and a wonder around. Supported days out like these make such a huge difference to our clients who are unable to get out and about by themselves.

As #VolunteersWeek draws to a close, we wanted to thank our Trustees for the governance of our charity.
Many people do not realise that the role of Trustee is unpaid & comes with a great deal of responsibility.
Thank you to our Board of Trustees (inc our Treasurer, Sandra, below)

Super photos here from Sutton House clients recent offsite trip. A hearty breakfast at The Fox in Walmley followed by a walk and game of table tennis at Sutton Park. They also got time to have a look at the displays in the Visitor Centre which they all found really interesting.

Our Volunteer Appreciation Day gave us chance to thank our volunteers directly for all that they do for our charity.
We simply couldn't do what we do without them.
Shout out to all #volunteers during #VolunteersWeek!

Thanks again to the team of volunteers from @BW_LLP for their hard work at our #braininjury hub yesterday. Who knew THREE people could make such a difference in a day?!
Weed-free pavers are so much easier for our brain-injured clients to navigate & so THANK YOU!

A group of volunteers from local company @BW_LLP have joined us today to help with some gardening chores! We simply couldn't keep on top of the garden work without this external support. Thank you!

It was Headway House client Finn's birthday recently and he celebrated by making the first break on a new pool table, of which he kindly donated. Many thanks Finn for your kind donation, we're sure it will get lots of use and bring lots of fun to the centre.

So grateful to @AF_Blakemore for their support once again, this time with refreshments for an inclusive walk planned for June.
It means our scarce resources can go directly towards providing our vital brain injury services, so often described as 'a lifeline' by our service users.

A brilliant humanities session delivered here at Headway House recently, drawing 'what's on my mind.' A great way for clients who struggle with expression through words to communicate how they are feeling.
