You are more likely to die of a stroke in Scotland than in any other part of the UK.Stroke devastates lives in an instant. It is the leading cause of disability in the UK and Scotland’s third biggest killer. Stroke does not discriminate, affecting children, the working age and the elderly. In Scotland, there are over 120,000 people living with the impact of stroke. The Stroke Association supports people who have a stroke through our Helpline, Life After Stroke Grants & stroke cafes. We also fund vital, life-saving stroke research. Join us for the Great Scottish Run and together we can conquer stroke.
