Until recently, many believed stroke was a disease for which little or nothing could be done. We now know that strokes are among the most preventable and treatable of all diseases.

Yet hundreds of people are dying each year when their lives could be saved. And hundreds more are being needlessly condemned to permanent disability because they don’t have access to vital services.      

We need action to improve stroke services throughout Ireland. Please support our campaign.
