💚🧠 A fantastic day at the BAHT Conference 2026!

Headway Bristol was delighted to attend the British Association of Hand Therapists (BAHT) Conference in Bristol today, where we were incredibly proud to have been chosen as their charity.

It was a brilliant opportunity to raise awareness of acquired brain injury, talk about the work we do and share information about the support available through Headway Bristol for individuals and families affected by brain injury.

The conference brought together hand therapists and other healthcare professionals from across the country, alongside some fantastic exhibitors showcasing products, equipment and technology designed to support rehabilitation and independence.

We really enjoyed meeting exhibitors including SMARTcube, Sovereign Medical, Performance Health and MedFac UK, as well as seeing some of the innovative rehabilitation solutions being demonstrated throughout the day. There were certainly a few things that caught our eye for the people we support at Headway! 👀

Days like this are also a great reminder of just how many different professionals can be involved in someone’s rehabilitation journey following an acquired brain injury — and how important it is that support continues beyond the clinical stages of recovery.

A huge thank you to BAHT for choosing Headway Bristol as your charity, for inviting us to be part of the conference and for making us feel so welcome. 💜

And thank you to everyone who stopped by the Headway Bristol stand, had a chat, picked up some information or took the time to learn a little more about acquired brain injury and the work we do.

A really enjoyable day of raising awareness, making connections and discovering new ideas in rehabilitation. 🧠💚

🚨 CLOTHES RAILS NEEDED! 👗👕💙

Thanks to your incredible generosity, Headway Bristol is currently bursting at the seams with donated clothes… unfortunately, our clothes rails aren’t quite keeping up! 😂

We’d really love to get everything out on display and raising vital funds, so we’re looking for sturdy clothes rails — shop-style or heavy-duty would be amazing.

We’d also be very grateful for hangers and shelving/display units for all the other lovely items you’ve donated. 🧥🛍️

Have something you could donate? We can collect! 🚐

And if you don’t have anything yourself, a quick share could make all the difference — the more people we reach, the better chance we have of finding what we need. 💙

Every bit of help means we can make the most of the wonderful donations we’ve been given and turn them into much-needed funds for Headway Bristol. 🙏

🎉🎂 HAPPY BIRTHDAY MILLIE! 🎂🎉

A huge Headway Bristol happy birthday to our wonderful Activities & Volunteers Coordinator, Millie! 💜💙

Millie is always coming up with new ideas and ways to make things bigger, better and more fun for the people we support — and she’s never afraid to roll her sleeves up and put the graft in to make them happen! 😂💪

Whether she’s organising activities, supporting our amazing volunteers, helping at events or simply stepping in wherever she’s needed, Millie always goes above and beyond.

Kind, sweet, caring and incredibly helpful, she brings so much enthusiasm and energy to Headway Bristol and we’re very lucky to have her. 🥰

We hope you have the loveliest birthday and get thoroughly spoilt — you deserve it!

Happy Birthday, Millie! 💜💙🎂🎈

Well… Headway Bristol did Butlin’s! 😂💜💙

What an absolutely brilliant weekend!

We packed in tribute acts, comedy, swimming, shopping, 80s fancy dress, line dancing, two silent discos, endless food, midnight snacks, air hockey, video games, far too many attempts at the grab machines (we all lost. Repeatedly. We don’t want to talk about it 😂) and SO much dancing… including an impromptu rave in Burger King! 😂

But amongst all of the madness, there was something really special about this weekend. ❤️

Watching everyone getting involved, trying things, laughing and dancing together and looking out for one another was just brilliant. Seeing friendships grow and everyone supporting each other so naturally was nothing short of completely wholesome.

We work hard to provide support, opportunities and experiences for people affected by brain injury, but weekends like this remind us exactly why we do what we do.

There were so many moments where you could just look around and see pure joy on everyone’s faces — and honestly, that was priceless. 💜💙

We’ve laughed, danced, eaten far too much and made some absolutely brilliant memories together.

We may have come home exhausted, probably a few pounds heavier 😂, but definitely with very full hearts. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who came and made this weekend what it was.

Butlin’s 2026 – you were an absolute blast! 🎉

Same time next year?! 😂🙌

🚌💜💙 WE’RE OFF TO BUTLIN’S! 💙💜🚌

Today is a pretty special day for Headway Bristol… we’re on our way to our first service user holiday in over 11 YEARS! 🎉🥳

Our service users and staff are currently heading down to Butlin’s Minehead for a weekend of fun, laughter, entertainment and, most importantly, making some brilliant memories together. 🥰

It’s been a long time since Headway has been able to offer a trip like this, so seeing everyone on the coach today, bags packed and ready for the weekend, feels like a real milestone for us. 💜

We hope everyone has the BEST time — and something tells us there may be a few photos and stories to share over the next couple of days! 📸😂

Butlin’s Minehead… Headway Bristol is on its way! 🚌🎉💙💜

🎉 Happy Birthday Dave! 🎂

Please join us in wishing a very Happy Birthday to Dave Ball, our brilliant Vice Chair of Trustees! 🥳

Dave is one of those people who does so much of the important stuff behind the scenes at Headway Bristol — much of which most people probably never even realise is happening!

Since retiring, Dave has also become a regular volunteer with us. He’s officially meant to volunteer one day a week… although we’re pretty sure he hasn’t quite grasped the concept of “one day”! 😂

Whether it’s in his role as Vice Chair, volunteering his time or quietly getting things sorted in the background, Dave gives an incredible amount to Headway Bristol and we really do appreciate everything he does. 💙💜

Happy Birthday, Dave! We hope you manage to take at least today off! 😂🎈🎂

Love from everyone at Headway Bristol 💙💜

💙💜 Remember A Charity Week 2026 💜💙

This week is Remember A Charity Week – a chance to celebrate the incredible difference that gifts left to charities in Wills can make.

Here at Headway Bristol, we support people whose lives have been changed by brain injury, as well as the families and carers alongside them.

A gift in your Will, no matter how big or small, could help us continue to be there for people in the future – providing support, friendship, practical help and a place where people affected by brain injury can feel understood. 💙

Of course, family and loved ones come first. But after taking care of the people closest to you, even a small gift to Headway Bristol could leave a lasting legacy. 💜

It could help ensure that, years from now, someone facing life after brain injury still has somewhere to turn.

💙 A gift in your Will is more than a donation – it’s support for a future you may never see, but a future you can help change. 💜
