Helpful Heads Peer Support (Canterbury Region)
A free Traumatic Brain Injury Peer Support Service for people with TBI (concussion/moderate/severe) and those that support them.
What is Peer Support?
- Peer Support is when people use their own experiences to help each other, sharing knowledge or providing emotional support, social interaction or practical help.
People with a brain injury (incl. concussion) and their support networks can feel very isolated and misunderstood.
Helpful Heads has a number of volunteers who have lived experience of brain injury (either with an injury themselves, or through supporting someone who does) who would love to help others going through a similar experience.
There’s nothing quite like talking with someone who understands what you are going through.
If you want to talk to someone, or would like to be a volunteer, please contact:
