On #WorldStrokeDay we highlight that ~1 in 6 young strokes (<50) are caused by #AntiphospholipidSyndrome: an #AutoimmuneCondition that increases the risk of #Thrombosis. Early diagnosis & anticoagulation can prevent recurrence: cutt.ly/stroke #StrokeAwareness #APS
Today is World Stroke Day! 💙 We’ll be here all day, sharing content, amplifying your voices and celebrating community - which is one of the most powerful tools in recovery! You can make a HUGE difference by engaging, sharing posts and spreading the word! 💚
#WorldStrokeDay 🌍 🧠 Stroke can affect anyone, at anytime. My clinical work and research reminds me that it touches all age groups and the impact is far-reaching. Let’s continue to support recovery, give people affected hope & raise awareness 💛 @TheStrokeAssoc @diffstrokes
Stroke recovery can feel incredibly lonely and it can seem like no one truly understands what you’re going through. Visit our website or send us a message — we’ll help you find the right space to connect, talk, and rebuild your sense of community at your own pace. #WorldStrokeDay
For Bridie, recovery started with small goals and self-compassion — and grew through sharing her story. “Speaking openly about my stroke helped me finally accept what happened and move forward.” #DifferentStrokesCommunity #WorldStrokeDay
Wayne from our Ashford Kent group shares his stroke recovery advice: “Stay positive, focus on small wins, rest when you need to, and listen to your body.” Recovery is about balance and celebrating progress, one step at a time. #DifferentStrokesCommunity #WorldStrokeDay
Our team of volunteer befrienders, all young stroke survivors themselves is available to offer 1:1 support & advice to other young stroke survivors during Befriender Hour. There’s one today! Wednesday 29th October 2025 For more information visit buff.ly/lyErXlS
After his stroke, Andrew felt lost and unsure where to turn. Today, he encourages others to reach out: “Knowing there are people you can talk to when you’ve got worries or anxieties — that really helps.” #WorldStrokeDay #StrokeAwareness #StrokeSupport #DifferentStrokesCommunity
Here at @DifferentStro16 we celebrated #WorldStrokeDay by hosting a celebratory buffet lunch for our members, their partners, family members and some staff from our local #stroke ward. @diffstrokes
Different Strokes exists to ensure younger survivors have the right support. Don't just take our word for it, hear from other survivors how the Different Strokes services and community have helped them along their way. #WorldStrokeDay #DifferentStrokesCommunity #StrokeAwareness
We want to say a heartfelt THANK YOU to the incredible volunteers and carers who give their time, love, and energy to support stroke survivors. You are often the unseen heroes of recovery, and our community is stronger because of you. 💙 #WorldStrokeDay #DifferentStrokesCommunity
Our Ashford Kent group took part in our World Stroke Day leaflet campaign — visiting Maidstone Hospital’s stroke unit to share flyers & posters 💙 You can still order free leaflet packs for your community today buff.ly/RiSJJzB #DifferentStrokesCommunity #WorldStrokeDay
“I wish I’d known how to find people who’d had a stroke.” For Andrew, connecting with others in recovery gave him hope and reassurance that life could feel normal again. #WorldStrokeDay #StrokeRecovery #PeerSupport #DifferentStrokesCommunity
Our York Group is set up for #WorldStrokeDay at Better York Community Leisure Centre, sharing info and raising awareness! If you’re nearby, drop in to learn more about stroke, recovery, and the power of community. #DifferentStrokesCommunity
Supporting a stroke survivor isn’t about being perfect — it’s about showing up and being consistent. Listen, check in, celebrate small wins, and share trusted info. Small actions make a big difference. #DifferentStrokes #StrokeSupport #LifeAfterStroke
Sheila, one of our BASS Ambassadors, had her stroke at 33 — and today she’s sharing her message from sunny Nice: ‘There is life after stroke. Get out in the sun, feel the water, and keep going — you can do this.’ #WorldStrokeDay #StrokeRecovery #DifferentStrokes #BASSProject
What are the effects of stroke? Every stroke is unique but there can be commonality between the psychological , physical and social after-effects. How many of these can you relate to? #WorldStrokeDay #NotJustTheElderly #DifferentStrokesCommunity
Greg knows first-hand the difference that peer support can make: “I’d be lost without peer support. I feel so lucky that I’ve got the Different Strokes community to ask how they’ve all dealt with stroke-related issues.” #WorldStrokeDay #DifferentStrokesCommunity #StrokeRecovery
At just 17, Bridie never imagined she could have a stroke. In her video, she shares what she wishes she’d known — that stroke can happen at any age and doesn’t always look like the symptoms we’re told to expect. #DifferentStrokesCommunity #WorldStrokeDay #YoungStrokeSurvivor
“Be kind to yourself.”That’s the advice from Lis, a member of our Different Strokes Ashford support group, who had her stroke at 56. Sometimes, kindness starts with understanding — and that’s exactly what peer support offers. #WorldStrokeDay #DifferentStrokesCommunity
Andrew found strength in knowing he wasn’t alone. “When you’re a young person with a lot of life still to live, you want to do more than just exist.” Meeting other survivors gave him hope and showed him what recovery could look like. #WorldStrokeDay #DifferentStrokesCommunity
