since 2018 until we became a CIO Charity in July
2024. Our vision and aim is to be able to support
stroke survivors in their own communities and

February 2025 for housebound stroke survivors.
After 16 weeks of therapy and leaving the NHS
after a stroke all the therapies end for stroke
survivors so we are there working alongside the
NHS to provide support to stroke survivors.
We work alongside the NHS Community Speech

training schedule for all our Volunteers on how to
support stroke survivors with aphasia.

**BENEFICIARIES**| 2 |**Individuals –**Stroke Survivors of all ages and| |---| |backgrounds are given assistance with their| |speech, language and communication| |difficulties., memory, cognitive skills, physical| |skills, mental wellbeing, social peer support.| |**Family/Carers -**Carer’s, families and friends all| |benefit from Stroke Survivors Group as it assists| |them with their loved ones. It makes them feel| |that they belong in a caring community where| |the survivors can be themselves and those who| |support them also receive essential and much| |valued support too. This in turn helps everyone| |as it improves self-esteem, reduces family/carer| |stress and pressure and increases confidence| |which is often lost when a stroke is| |experienced.| |**Volunteers –**We encourage a strong sense of| |pride and community for our volunteers| |through helping others. We have a proven track| |record of our service. Since we started in May| |2018, we have evaluated and monitored our| |volunteers and maintained contact throughout| |with all our stroke survivors during the Covid| |Pandemic.| |**NHS**- Our group takes pressure off local| |services by closing a gap in provision for stroke| |survivors. Working with Speech & Language| |Stroke and Community Teams, Social| |Prescribers and Health Teams we provide a| |positive and engaging environment that is| |endorsed by professionals.Stroke Survivors are| |inclusive, person-centred and we treat everyone| |as an individual.| |**We give and are given support in a variety of**| |**ways from the following organisations:**| |•

We are different from other Groups in that we provide stimulating activities which help members with their rehabilitation. Since 2018, this need has been clearly demonstrated by the increased growth in our member numbers, especially via professional referral, we started up a second group in Alsager (established in May 2022) and a third group in Sandbach (established in September 2023) In Crewe, this need is further evidenced by the Cheshire East JSNA stats. Crewe health issues are higher than other areas of Cheshire East and smoking/alcohol/circulatory issues, combined with higher levels of poverty, all contribute to the increased risk of a stroke. We, as a group, focus on both the rehabilitation and prevention of future strokes through education/information and talks. We have evaluation and monitoring forms for each of our new/regular members so we can evidence progress and improvements from when they start with us. Monitoring is logged every 3 months, 6 months and annually and is based on emotional and physical progress. ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |Achievements against
