What's going on
WE ARE FINALLY MOVING TO OUR NEW RESOURCE CENTRE!
After a year in temporary accommodation at Faraday Road in Guildford we are very pleased to say that we are moving to our new resource centre.
We have enjoyed our year at Faraday Road but staff and members of Headway Surrey are pleased and very excited to be retuning to North Road, especially to a brand new centre with outside space (just in time for the summer!).
Our telephone numbers will remain the same, If however you need to visit us, our new address is:
Headway House, North Road, Guildford, Surrey, GU2 9PU.
All of our services are being run on the site - including the Tuesday and Thursday group sessions and the Friday Drop In. No services or Drop In will be running week commencing 15th June as we will be moving but will be back to normal week commencing 22nd June.
SCROLL DOWN TO FOLLOW THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NEW HEADWAY HOUSE:
FAREWELL ORIGINAL HEADWAY HOUSE:
We held a demolition party on May 20th to mark our last day at Headway House in North Road. On arrival members were asked to take as many "bricks" as they wanted and write down their memories of their time in Headway House.
Following a photo session and a few words from Oliver the balloons were released taking the memories with them. This seemed a fitting end to a building that had served us well for 12 years.
In July the building finally came down!
and work started on the new building.......
February 2009: The New Headway House takes shape - View from North Road
Believe it or not this will be our new Kitchen! (being stored within the centre)
March 2009:
Kitchen being installed
Staff office

May 2009:

Main Centre - lots going on: new carpets and deliveries starting to arrive
Our new sign is up and the building is awaiting our arrival!
At Headway Surrey, we collect information regarding local meetings and social events, providing a forum for mutual support, discussion, education and ongoing communication, aiming to foster friendships and introduce people with similar life experiences.
We hold a free of charge, monthly support group at Headway House in Guildford, facilitated by the Community Support Co-ordinator. This group provides an environment for the sharing of experiences, and are open to ANYONE who is affected by head injury.
Dates for Support Groups in 2009:
Wednesday 9th September / Wednesday 14th October - These groups will be held at our New Resource Centre: Headway House, North Road (off Stoughton Road), Guildford, Surrey, GU2 9PU and will start at 7.30
Please contact the Community Support Co-ordinator (on the helpline telephone number) if you will be attending.
