Stroke Association Childhood Stroke Support Service
The Stroke Association offers a Childhood Stroke Support Service – providing information, advice, support and networking events to families affected by stroke in childhood.
The service is UK wide and freely accessible, and information about it can be found at: www.stroke.org.uk/childhood
The service offers a range of freely downloadable resources, including a childhood stroke guide, handbook, and toolkit for teachers.
We have a range of awareness raising posters, including how to spot the signs of stroke in a child – relevant to all professionals working with children and young people.
We want our Local Offer to be as helpful and easy-to-use as possible. All feedback from parents, professionals and young people with SEND is invaluable and we continuously act on suggestions to improve the website. Could you help us by completing our short survey about your recent experience?
