Summary
Stroke Association’s vision is for a world where there are fewer strokes and all those touched by stroke get the help they need. Their mission is to prevent strokes and achieve life after stroke through providing services, campaigning, education and research. They do this through information sharing and awareness raising, research and running key services. In Manchester activities include a Stroke Recovery Service, community activities such as cafes and long term support, and POPPS (partnership for older people projects) courses that deliver health promotion information and supported exercise.

Proposed activities
They will continue to develop the services provided, improving volunteering, supporting carers, and promoting the health and wellbeing of stroke survivors and their contribution to the community. They also want to develop partnership networks with other organisations to create various opportunities for survivors.
