Our Story

SAS began in 2000 in a small room at The Bridge Project in Sudbury, Suffolk. Five stroke survivors who had been discharged from the West Suffolk Hospital decided to meet every week, having discovered there was little or no support for them in the outside world. These sessions became a lifeline.

Over the following 25 years we have helped numerous stroke survivors and their carers, and developed ever-more productive ways to offer this help.

We are immensely grateful to all our donors, supporters, fund-raisers and of course all our wonderful volunteers without whom none of this would have been possible. Here’s to the next 25 years!
