Welcome. How can we help you ?


Information about Headway


 

The National Organisation

Headway started 30 years ago, in 1979.

At that time there was no help available either for people who had suffered a head injury or for their families.

There are now many local groups, branches and Headway houses all over Britain.

They provide a quality information service for individuals and groups, whether you are a sufferer or an interested party.
 

Here to help

Any form of brain injury can be traumatic. Even a relatively minor injury can cause major changes to the way a person functions on a day-to-day basis.

Headway exists to help all those involved come to terms with the changes which can occur and to offer support and advice to the injured and those who hold them dear.
 

Fife Headway

Fife Headway is the local support group for those who have suffered a head injury whether by an accident or illness.

We are here for individuals who have suffered head injuries, their carers, friends and families.

Please note those who have suffered a head injury, their carers, family and friends or anyone interested will be made welcome at our local branch meetings. We provide transport to and from our meetings suitable for all disabilities so please get in touch with us if you require this service.
 

Local Groups

We normally run two support groups, one in Kirkcaldy and one in Dunfermline, although the meetings in Dunfermline have had to be temporarily suspended.

With both groups it is best to check one of the contact numbers, especially if you are a member who doesn't regularly attend and is perhaps not now receiving a reminder for our meetings, or if you are a new person thinking of giving us a visit for the first time. Or keep an eye on this site for all the up-to-date news and information!

Details of where we hold our group meetings can be found in the menu under “About Us…”

We hope you will visit Fife Headway again to view updates.

We apologise for not being able to update details quite as quickly as we would like. Life gets in the way, and plans have a habit of going astray.

Transport
Unfortunately we are unable to provide our usual assistance with transport to the meetings at present. Car assistance is still available, on request and subject to availability, but tail-lift transport for wheelchairs has had to be suspended for reasons beyond our control.
