Such an important survey-please share with your colleagues so we can reach as many people who have had stroke and mini stroke as possible. Post stroke fatigue is not just tiredness it is debilitating and life changing. @ISDNNorthMids @WM_ISDN @EastMidsISDN @ukstrokenursing
🚨Have you had a stroke or a mini-stroke? We need your help to collect ‘community responses’ for our new interactive Rethink Fatigue digital programme. Take part in a short survey: https://t.co/NbalXZ9a1V

A huge thank you to @Uma_Kumaran and her husband Jacob for sharing their story in today's @Daily_Express. Stroke has a devastating impact and the 10 Year Health Plan can't come soon enough to ensure stroke survivors get the support they need from onset through to rehabilitation.
On my first day in Parliament, my husband Jacob suffered a TIA stroke We’re sharing his story to raise awareness of stroke in young people & what more can be done to support the 1.4 million stroke survivors in the UK 📰In today’s @Daily_Express
