We would like you to ask at least ten of your own contacts, clients etc to let them know that you support Headway Somerset and how pleased you would be if they considered becoming a Project 2012 supporter too.
Benefits for Supporters

Headway Somerset is the only organisation of its kind in the county helping brain injury survivors plus their families and carers.
