Local MP Maria Miller called in recently at the Rooksdown base of Headway Basingstoke, a local charity providing rehabilitation for adults who have sustained brain injuries, and support, guidance and information for people with brain injuries and their carers. Maria met up with Evelyn Vincent, the Chair of Trustees and Heather Jury, Service Manager, for an update on the charity’s work. Cllr Simon Bound also joined the meeting.
Maria said: “Headway Basingstoke is a wonderful local charity and I am always impressed when I hear about the fantastic work they do in providing a community based environment for rehabilitation, as well as so much advice and assistance. I was also really interested to learn more about what they can do to support the rehabilitation of people who have had a stroke.”
