Say Aphasia is a local charity (Registered Charity No: 1169933) that supports people living with aphasia. Aphasia is a communication disability which occurs when the communication centres of the brain are damaged. It is usually caused by stroke, but can be caused by brain haemorrhage, head injury or brain tumours. Aphasia affects people differently. Some people are unable to speak at all, others may have difficulty finding the right word to say or have difficulty reading, writing or using numbers. The emotional, social impact of having a communication difficulty can be huge, affecting relationships, employment, education, social lives, and confidence.

We have 30 Say Aphasia drop-in groups in the UK.
