Headway open new branch in St Andrews
Created: 18/03/2025Headway North East Fife have opened a brand-new, volunteer-led branch in St Andrews. The branch will provide information, support, and companionship to brain injury survivors in St Andrews and the wider North East Fife area.
The launch of the branch was celebrated with guests in attendance including Wendy Chamberlain MP, Provost of Fife Jim Leishman, Chief Executive of Headway Luke Griggs, and Maria Burnett, network support coordinator for Scotland.
The branch addresses a gap in available and accessible support in the area, with some brain injury survivors struggling to make the 26-mile journey to their nearest Headway group for support.
A monthly schedule sees guest speakers visit the St David's Centre on the first Thursday of the month to chat to service users, offering practical support as well as fun activities like bingo and live music.
Headway North East Fife offers a drop-in service on the first Thursday of the month at St Davids Centre, 23 Albany Park, St Andrews KY16 8DP between 1:00 and 3:00pm. For support or more information please contact [email protected]
