This year, we’re starting a new tradition and we’d love for you to be part of it. Our Christmas tree won’t just be decorated with ornaments, but with memories, hopes, and wishes from all who make Headway Somerset special - our clients, their families, our community members, funders, and supporters like you.
How to take part:
Thanks to a generous donation from Langford Lakes, from 25th November we will have a beautiful Christmas tree at Victoria House waiting to be decorated.
You can help by clicking this link to hang a star, top the tree or switch on a light when you make a donation to our charity on our ‘Virtual Tree’. The people we support with acquired brain injuries have been busy making hand-made ornaments, and for every donation received we’ll add a decoration to our real tree, alongside your message.
The money raised through this Christmas Campaign will go towards activities and events for the clients who attend our Wellbeing Centres.
Thank you for helping us with this Christmas campaign
