Our history

Headway South Bucks has grown enormously since its modest beginnings in 1995 as a small group of eight service users, one coordinator and one volunteer, working one day a week out of the Speech Therapy Centre in Amersham.

​

Whilst based at Amersham, Headway South Bucks became a separate entity, and soon moved to St. Thomas’ Church Hall in Beaconsfield. It was here that we were able to increase our numbers to 14 service users and it soon became clear that there was demand for us to run a second session each week, so the hunt began for an alternative location. 

It was agreed that the Community Centre in Wakeman Road, Bourne End offered us the right mix of facilities and so we moved. We run our resource centre three days a week on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. We offer a wide range of different activities and are always actively looking at options to increase and enrich our services. See our 'What we do' page for further information on our current and potential future services.

​

In 2025 we look forward to celebrating our 30th birthday!
