Finding strength through support When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down.
And so does a part of you.
That's because a stroke happens in the brain, the control centre for who we are and what we can do.
It happens every five minutes in the UK and changes lives instantly.
Recovery is tough, but with the right specialist support and a ton of courage and determination, the brain can adapt.
The organisation believes everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke.
And it's a team effort to get there.
The charity provide specialist support, fund critical research and campaign to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support to rebuild their lives.
The Association is the only charity in the UK providing lifelong support for all stroke survivors and their families.
It provides tailored support to tens of thousands of stroke survivors each year.
This support includes one-to-one and group support, funding vital scientific research into stroke prevention, acute treatment, recovery and long-term care, and campaigning to secure the best care for everyone affected by stroke.
The team are here for stroke survivors and their loved ones, from the moment they enter the new and frightening post-stroke world, supporting them every step of the way as they find their strength and their way back to life.
It's only thanks to the generosity of supporters and donors that they can provide vital support.
Individuality leads to a richer experience for people and better support for all those affected by stroke.
We strongly encourage people from all backgrounds to apply.
We're particularly looking to increase the number of applications from those with lived experience of stroke, and those from under-represented communities.
