150,000 people have a stroke each year in the UK – on average that’s one every three minutes. Stroke is the leading cause of severe disability and claims the lives of over 67,000 people each year.
A stroke is a brain attack. It happens due to a clot or a bleed in the brain, which causes brain cells to die. This can happen to anyone of any age and the effects can be devastating.
Thanks for taking time to read this, much appreciated.
