Reading to stroke survivors
is invaluable post-stroke support

InterAct Stroke Support is a charity dedicated to supporting stroke recovery

​

Following a stroke (also referred to as a 'brain attack'), reading and conversational interaction is proven to: stimulate the brain, boost memory and communication skills, improve mood and alleviate depression

InterAct is an award winning charity dedicated to supporting stroke recovery through reading and storytelling. InterAct employs a team of professional actors to deliver a rich variety of reading material that is selected to suit the needs of each stroke patient. Our approach can help stimulate memory, engage language, and lift spirits - ultimately alleviating symptoms of post stroke depression which can slow or even arrest recovery.

​

InterAct's employs over 100 professional actors, reading in 20 hospitals and over 29 stroke clubs across the United Kingdom as well as leading a variety of community projects.
