Kathryn Edwards, Support Worker, Headway Bristol

What I do
I work with service users at our centres, helping them practise or relearn skills that may have been affected by a brain injury. I also support them on outreach, assisting them to identify and work towards enriching goals. 

Skills and experience
I’ve been with Headway since 2019, supporting individuals affected by brain injury. My background in pharmacy work and experience as a volunteer mentor lead have helped me develop strong communication skills and a compassionate ear.  

Interests and hobbies
I’m an outdoor enthusiast: I love exploring new countries, discovering what makes each place unique and broadening my horizons along the way.
