Support for people with aphasia (communication difficulties after stroke)
We provide specific support for those with speech and language difficulties who want to practice their communication in a supportive and understanding environment. All our staff and many of our volunteers have had specific training from Speech & Language Therapists, and our counselors are experienced in providing support for people with communication difficulties.
Bristol After Stroke facilitates a peer-led drop-in group for people with aphasia. It is led by Bristol After Stroke volunteers, many of whom have had, or still have similar difficulties themselves. The Conversation Cafe provides an environment where you practice speech and other forms of communication, and share skills and tips.
It is held at: The Station, Silver Street, BS1 2AG
Time: 2pm – 4pm
