Tried trawling through the stroke ads for BRIDGEND for clubs or meeting other stroke survivors,and was seriously disappointed with how little actual support is out there for survivors.

Follow up on such a serious health issue is rubbish , needless to say "THIS IS WALES AFTER ALL"😭

What makes you think things are any better in other parts of the country? I needed help after my first stroke and got none at all, after the second stroke I was better able to ask for the help I needed and again after the third one. The problem is we all need help with different things after a stroke so they can't offer blanket help for all of us. We need to be proactive and ask for what we need, at least that way we'll know if what we need is actually available.
