Younger people (18-65yo)

There are about 142,000 Australians aged 18 to 65 living with the impact of stroke.

Young Stroke is a website created by this community, to connect with people who get it, and be guided to tips and resources

You’re not alone, even though some days it may feel that way. Heaps of young survivors and their families and friends have walked down this road before.

• Being your own champion
• Fatigue
• Relationships
• Sex and intimacy
• Emotions and trauma
• Aphasia
• Hidden impacts
• Parenting
• Work, study & volunteering.

You can also learn about caring for someone after stroke.
