Supporting Headway Jersey is as easy as pie"

Christmas is almost upon us, so why not show your goodwill by hosting a Mince Pie Morning for Headway Jersey

Every 90 seconds, someone in the UK is admitted to hospital with an acquired brain injury.

The Mince Pie Morning is a great chance to raise money to help those affected by brain injury in Jersey, while sharing some lovely Christmas treats over a cuppa
with friends, family or colleagues.
Simply choose a day that suits you in December, bake or buy some pies, promote your Mince Pie Morning - and enjoy.

Don't forget to share your photos online with the hashtag #MincePieMorning #HeadwayJersey

"A journey is best made when it's shared with a friend". Together, @Harry McAlinden and our Headway Jersey Fundraising Manager Bryce Alford, take on the mighty Jersey coastline not once, not twice but three times continuously, day and night, night and day.
A total of 144 miles and an accumulated altitude of 13,000 ft.(the equivalent height of Mount Kinabalu) awaits them on 3rd August. They have currently raised close to £2500 of their £10,000 target, which will help Headway Jersey to continue to provide the essential life changing services many islanders have benefitted from. If you would like to sponsor them please click on the link https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/harry-brycetriplechallenge144 Harry and Bryce are grateful to Greg Kelly of GMK Construction for sponsoring their challenge.

Thanks to our Headway supporters at Domino's who allowed our members to experience how a delicious pizza is made. Not only did they get to add their own toppings, but also they were delighted with tasting the finished product!
Domino's are just one of many businesses who display a Headway collection can on their counter, which provides valuable donations and helps us continue to provide our life changing services.
Perhaps you or someone you know would display one for us too?
