Risk and Prevention
Stroke is a leading cause of major disability and New Zealand’s third biggest killer. It can happen to anyone, at anytime, anywhere. But 80% of all strokes can be prevented!
How You Can Help
To do our work, we largely rely on the financial support of businesses, community organisations and many caring individuals. Would you like to help stroke people locally?
For Carers
Caring for a loved one after stroke is not easy. Make sure you get the support you need! Our Field Officers can help, and there are local support groups you can join.
