Wellbeing After Stroke (WAterS) study

Poster on Wellbeing After Stroke (WAterS-2) @GJBrainResearch showcase. We're recruiting #healthcare #professionals for #interviews on #implementing support for #psychological #wellbeing. See Advert below & please follow @StrokeWaters, repost, and #ContactUs to hear more!

Inspiring talk from Richard Djan-Krofa about his #lived #experience at #uksf23. "Sticking out like a sore thumb" when trying to access support as a #young #black #stroke #survivor. We must get better at #inclusion of groups whilst honouring their individuality.

Working on a project and want to include stroke survivors? Today we heard from the @TheStrokeAssoc Aphasia and Accessible Voices Group about how they shaped a Communication Support Pack, loved by health professionals AND stroke survivors! Catch up on the #UKSF23 app!

“Usual researches practices are unwittingly exclusionary.” @AudreyBowenProf spoke about the need to address inequities pre- and post-stroke, whether it be prevention, treatment, or rehabilitation, and how we can identify inequities through awareness and exploration. #UKSF23

Here we go! Our opening plenary is about to begin. It promises to be a jam-packed session with some wonderful speakers discussing health inequities in stroke: from mobilising data with @DrMattKearney to implementing thrombectomy with @MattLambert_1. Find us in Hall 1! 🚨

Such a fitting meme thinking about #health #inequalities in #stroke #research. We must change the system. And that's what we hope to chip away at in the next iteration of @StrokeWaters
