How your support helps

The difference you make

Every day in the UK, another 240 people wake up to the catastrophic impact of a stroke. 

 

The Stroke Association is the only charity in the UK providing lifelong support for all stroke survivors and their families. They provide tailored support to tens of thousands of stroke survivors each year, fund vital scientific research, and campaign to secure the best care and support for everyone affected by stroke.

With more donations and support from you, we can help stroke survivors find strength through support.
