Often you can feel like the only family that is living with aphasia. Yet around 6,000 in Devon have aphasia as a result of a stroke or brain injury.
Aphasia affects everyone in a different way and often the hidden difficulties with words can be tricky to understand.
Our aphasia community is here to support and help others. Hearing other people’s experiences can offer inspiration and hope for your recovery and life journey with aphasia.
We’d love to hear your experience of living with aphasia.
