Our Stroke Support is focused on maximising the recovery of stroke survivors. These photographs shows some of the group's regular activities - seated and bar exercises.

To be suitable for our Stroke Care Rehabilitation and Reablement Group, stroke survivors must meet certain criteria, have a visit from the Family Support Officer and have an assessment with the in-house Physiotherapist.
Wendy Gosden and Sarah Lander are our experienced Group Coordinators. We also have a team of dedicated Volunteers, coordinated by Sarah, who assist with activities.

We meet at Woolhampton Village Hall on Tuesdays, 10am to 2.30pm throughout the year with a few exceptions, generally at Christmas. The hall has generous parking and excellent access facilities.

  • A physiotherapy programme according to those needs and goals.
  • Cognitive exercises.

  • Confidence building
  • Social interaction.
  • Recreation.
  • Refreshment
“There is always someone to talk to who can understand the difficulties you have after a stroke”.

If you have had a stroke please talk to our Family Support Officer about our criteria for entry.

Periodically, we have special events and outdoor visits.
