Stroke survivors in Devon will continue to receive Life After Stroke support after the Stroke Association agreed to temporarily meet the costs from the charity’s funds.

The charity’s Devon Stroke Recovery Service was due to close on 31 December after funding from NHS Devon and Plymouth City Council ceased.

Now the Stroke Association has agreed to provide interim funding for 15 months after receiving a commitment from NHS Devon to work together to find a long-term solution from April 2026.

Thank you to everyone who signed this petition to show how how valued the service is.
