I'm raising my voice and raising vital funds for the Stroke Association and in support of Becks this May for stroke awareness.
Over 240 a day wake up to the catastrophic impact of stroke. Some stroke survivors can have difficulties speaking after a stroke, this is known as aphasia. This can be extremely challenging, but recovery is possible.
Did you know singing is a powerful tool in stroke recovery? Because music and singing is processed in a different part of the brain to spoken language, some people with aphasia find that they can sing easily, even though speaking is hard.
