Headway UK Brain Injury ID Cards

Brain Injury ID cards 

Headway UK have launched a free ID card for people who attend Headway groups/ branches. The Headway Brain Injury Identity Card is designed to help police officers, staff and others more easily identify brain injury survivors and ensure that they receive an appropriate response and support.

The card can also provide brain injury survivors with added confidence in everyday social scenarios.

Each card is personalised, helping the card holder to explain the effects of their brain injury and request any support they may need.

Which agencies support the card?

The National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC), which covers England and Wales, Police Scotland, and the Police Service of Northern Ireland all recognise and endorse this card.
