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 others who are experiencing similar life changes.

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

• Offering additional support and understanding.
• Helping to adjust to living with aphasia.
• Meeting others 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 in new ways.
• Re-gaining more independence.
• 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.
