Hi all,  
Via a fellow stroke survivor i was made aware of an independent charity and support network based in Stockport but open to all who are on the SS journey.

[[www.strokeinformation.co.uk](http://www.strokeinformation.co.uk)]([https://www.strokeinformation.co.uk](https://www.strokeinformation.co.uk)

A bit like the forum i guess but they meet weekly so can join via zoom like the ZOG on here that @Bobbi hosts.

Thry have a whatsapp group of 50 or so members which is another good way of asking for help or advice dnd feeling part of a like minded supportive caring people.

Just thought i would let you know about it, guy called Nick Clarke runs it and its a very welcoming  
And supportive group.

Thanks

Andy
