This festival will bring people together and build strong relationships in and across our community. By having this event, it will give this charity a place to provide informative talks to the public about aphasia, and help the community to understand what we all can do to help those living with the condition. Our aim is to make our home city aware of aphasia and our charity, and with this larger support network we will be able to help more people who live with aphasia across the country.

    Why we exist

    This charity knows first hand the confusion, frustration and change that a stroke can have on a person and their family. We know that aphasia is not only a result of a stroke, but also head injury, brain haemorrhage, or a brain tumour. That is why we are focused on supporting anyone with aphasia or similar conditions. We have many people who come regularly to our drop in groups who have aphasia, dysarthria and apraxia.
