The Stroke Association warns of a 51% increase in strokes over the next 10 years, costing half of the current NHS budget. Urgent action is needed to improve prevention, treatment, and recovery from stroke. stroke-association.mynewsdesk.com/pressreleases/…
Your postcode should NOT determine how well you recover after a stroke, but sadly it does. Every stroke survivor has a #RightToRehab, & it was a privilege to celebrate #RehabLegends today at Westminster with @thecsp. Join us & end the postcode lottery: bit.ly/3W55rkY

Congratulations to @nr_evans, who has been awarded the prestigious @RCPhysicians Linacre Lectureship. Dr. Evans, a researcher funded by us, will be delivering the lecture: “Advances in stroke medicine: blood vessels, brains and beyond” this evening. rcplondon.ac.uk/events/linacre…
We're pleased to see that the Government has introduced the Tobacco and Vapes Bill to Parliament. Smokers are around three times more likely to have a stroke. This legislation will help save lives, support healthier living and reduce NHS pressures. #SmokeFreeGeneration

Remember F.A.S.T for the signs of a stroke. Face – has their face fallen on one side? Can they smile? Arms – can they raise both arms and keep them there? Speech – is it slurred? Time – it’s time to call 999. When stroke strikes remember to Act F.A.S.T. nhs.uk/actFAST
We are proud to support a major new #RightToRehab #RehabLegends campaign which launches across the UK today. The campaign uses 'Patient Firsts' to highlight the power of rehabilitation and that shockingly, not all patients can access rehab. Help us end this postcode lottery.

Your brain is amazing! 🧠♻️ A stroke presents a blockage in the brain that can affect your ability to walk, talk, read or write. But through a process called neuroplasticity, your brain can rewire itself, bypass the blockage, and recovery can begin! More: bit.ly/3tJcYUK
