Give the Gift of Independence: Headway Sussex’s 12 Days of Christmas Campaign
This Christmas, Headway Sussex is thrilled to launch the 12 Days of Independence campaign, a heartfelt initiative designed to provide our clients with gifts that empower them to live more independently in 2025.
Each day from Monday, 9th December, we’ll unveil a carefully chosen gift idea that enhances cognitive, physical, or emotional well-being for people living with brain injuries.
How It Works:
Starting on 9th December, we’ll reveal a new gift idea daily via our social media platforms and emails. Each gift has been thoughtfully selected to address specific challenges and needs, helping our clients thrive. Supporters can choose one or more days to donate and make a tangible difference in someone’s life.
