HEADWAY WEST LONDON

We run a monthly support group with additional social activities, a regular newsletter, a support helpline and website and a twice weekly drop in support service at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington. The charity's specialist two part time link workers attend St Mary's weekly, as well as neurology and neurosurgery outpatient clinics, trauma ward, occupational therapists and physiotherapists.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year

Established: 9 years
