Headway Blackburn with Darwen

It’s action for brain injury week! Let’s raise awareness of brain injury together 🧠🩷

The impact of brain injury can be devastating for both survivors and their loved ones. It leaves lives upturned, futures more uncertain, and once-familiar relationships changed. It reshapes how you fit into the world and how close you feel to the people in it.

We had a wonderful evening with 2 gorgeous therapy dogs, 5 year old springer spaniel called Willow who loved a cuddle and sitting on everyone's laps!
There was also 1 year old black labrador called Winter who had just started training and loved his treats and having photos taken with everyone, a lovely evening 🐶🐾🐕

Here’s an update for the coming months… it’s looking great! July is still to be confirmed. We are short on news stories for the website, so if anyone would like to send over some news or write a short piece following a monthly meeting/trip out, send it over with a picture and I can add it to the website 😀🙏🏻

Hello everyone and Happy New Year!! Hope everyone is well.

The committee have organised the first 6 months of meetings at Spring Bank Court, I’ve attached a screenshot of the info from our website (first aid hasn’t yet been confirmed but hopefully will go ahead).

We also have a bowling trip and a meal out planned, so we will be taking names for these at our next meeting on the 29th Jan. See you all then!
