Ask yourself: are you bringing your ‘A-Game’ today? Even if you focus yourself on just one task, do it to the best of your ability.

In a fascinating guest post on our website, @DrYeates questions why #stroke support services seem to taper off as stroke survivors' needs start to increase. Is the support on offer a narrow torch beam in the expansive dark? Read here: buff.ly/3tVOTe9 #strokecare #NHS

Are you in a support bubble with an older relative or friend? Please consider helping out with stroke research! I'm looking for healthy volunteers above 80 years old to take part in 1h video call. Friend or family can join to help out with tech. 8 places available in next 2 weeks

Ian had a stroke in 2018 leaving him unable to walk or use his left arm. He is more determined than ever to walk again. Recovery is tough, but Ian proves that with the right specialist support and a ton of courage, the brain can adapt.💜 #RebuildingLives

DW. Reducing problems from dysarthria after stroke is, I think, scarcely researched. A large trial (n = 98) found liuzijue qigong breathing exercises with articulation training improved breathing and speech. doi.org/10.1177/026921552199… More attention on dysarthria after stroke needed
