We are bursting with pride to announce that Vitale is now sponsoring the Selsey Stroke Support Group. The group is open to anyone who has had a stroke or is caring for someone that has had one. Vitale’s financial and practical support will help the group support more people.
This sponsorship is part of our partnership with the team at the Selsey Community Form, which is, we believe, a blueprint for how communities can help each other.
Charli Milne, Vitale’s Community Engagement Officer, is running crafting sessions to help with dexterity, and music and movement sessions to help with mobility.
Many of the clients we support Vitale Care are recovering from a stroke. Because every stroke is different, there is no set pattern for recovering from one. The quickest recovery happens in the days and weeks after a stroke, but recovery can continue for months and years.
Stroke survivors tell us that it can take a lot of effort and determination to keep going with rehabilitation. Having a dedicated Care Professional to support you in your rehabilitation journey can make a huge, positive difference to your progress. With a trusted Care Professional by your side, it is easier to practise regularly, and there’s someone to help you celebrate your improvement.
It can be hard work, physically and mentally, but many people find it helps them make vital progress with speaking, walking and other key skills.
