Australia's first-ever Aphasia Handbook will change lives.
Donate today.
Together with the Australian Aphasia Association, we have created the first-ever Aphasia Handbook, a resource tailored to survivors navigating the challenges of aphasia post-stroke.
This new resource addresses a longstanding gap in support and will provide accessible information about aphasia, assessment, speech therapy and communication tips.
It will provide real-time support for people who have been silenced by this devastating condition.
We need your support to help survivors access to this invaluable resource.
Your donation will help get the Aphasia Handbook to people who need it most.
"Doctors and speech therapists weren't sure I would ever speak again."
- Ben, survivor of stroke
Ben's stroke resulted in aphasia, a language and communication disorder that affects 1 in 3 survivors of stroke.
Ben says, "Aphasia feels like the word I need is on the tip of my tongue, but I cannot quite remember it."
For four long months after his catastrophic stroke, Ben was silent. One day he uttered the word 'Yes' and started his road to recovery. He had to re-learn the aphabet. Then simple words and phrases.
Please donate today and help survivors with aphasia all over the county.
