For many islanders living with a brain injury, travelling independently is simply not possible. Loss of confidence, mobility challenges, cognitive impairments, visual issues, or balance problems can turn a simple journey into a dangerous and overwhelming barrier.

Headway’s door-to-door transport service is often the only safe link between home and the rehabilitation they urgently need.

This service is not optional. It is essential, and it keeps people out of crisis, out of isolation, and out of hospital.

📣 Research Participants Wanted – Teesside University Study

As part of my Master’s dissertation at Teesside University, I am conducting an ethically approved research study exploring the lived experiences of informal (unpaid) carers supporting someone with an acquired brain injury (ABI), traumatic brain injury (TBI), or stroke.

Participants will be invited to complete a short 7-day reflective diary (5–10 minutes per day) from the comfort of their own home, at a time that suits them.

This study has received full ethical approval, and all participation is completely voluntary and confidential.
