Meet the Team

Headway Gauteng’s Governing Body is made up of volunteers who come from a variety of careers and backgrounds. Some of them have a personal connection to traumatic brain injury through their family members.

They have expertise in fields such as accounting, medicine, social work and neuropsychology.

Our board members generously give their time and knowledge to our organisation. They are responsible for setting policies, upholding the Constitution and ensuring that donations are used and accounted for properly.
