The Say Aphasia Charity provides supportive drop in groups for people with aphasia in the UK.

It is run by people with aphasia for people with aphasia. Aphasia is not a well known condition and so people with aphasia can feel alone.

Our aim is to provide continuous support in a social environment with like minded people, who are experiencing similar life changes.

Our charity makes a difference to people living with aphasia by:

  • Offering additional support
  • Helping to adjust to living with aphasia.
  • Meeting like-minded people who are experiencing a similar life change.
  • Making new life long friends.
  • Gaining tips and advice from others with aphasia.
  • Gaining confidence to socialise and communicate as best they can.
  • Re-gaining independence as much as they can.
  • Helping to reduce loneliness.
  • Providing support in a relaxed and welcoming environment.
  • Offering art class and singing class as a therapeutic way to relax and express themselves.

    Bev's bonkers(idea) Brighton bash

    Providing much needed support to aphasia suffers, reduces the sense of isolation and helps to restore hope on the long road to recovery. Say Aphasia do this and much much more, as a smaller charity they are able to provide a personal and local approach to their work, but need to attract as much financial support as possible to enable this.
