Life After Stroke Awards 2008

As the only UK charity solely concerned with helping everyone affected by stroke, The Stroke Association recognises the huge and overwhelming impact a stroke can have.

Yet every day, The Stroke Association witnesses people displaying immense courage and determination, as they work to overcome the effects of stroke, as well as great patience and persistence in overcoming disabilities and relearning old skills. The Stroke Association also sees people showing true compassion and commitment in encouraging others to rebuild their lives by providing them with the support they need. It is for this reason that The Stroke Association organises the Life After Stroke Awards.

The 2008 Awards were held at Claridge’s, London, on 25 June 2008, and were an opportunity to formally recognise and celebrate the achievements of these remarkable people.
