This morning's session was fab. My spirit was uplifted after, and I felt boosted both physically and mentally


The ‘Me and My Stroke’ sessions have been great. There was quite a bit mum and I both learnt and lots of things she could identify with. It was also very informative listening to the rest of the group

I have been finding it difficult to get motivated to exercise again but everyone was so positive in the group which has encouraged me to keep going

We also have a dedicated Stroke Support Helpline team who can help find answers on anything you want to know about stroke. You can call them on 0303 3033 100 or email helpline@stroke.org.uk
