Stroke rehabilitation

If you or someone you care about has had a stroke, you will need access to rehabilitation, support and information to improve your condition and quality of life. This section of the website looks at the ways in which people who have had a stroke can regain skills and adapt to life after a stroke.  It also considers the professionals who can help you work towards getting back to normal life as much as possible, or in learning to live with the long-term effects of stroke.Gardening
