A big thanks also to @mareeedwardsmp, @CatherineKingMP & @BenCarrollMP for their ongoing support.

A great end to National Stroke week- Barwon Stroke Support Centre members enjoyed an outing to Bellarine Railway.

A big thanks to @GreaterGeelong, for making it possible through our Community Mobility and Connect Program, funded by the “Healthy & Connected Communities Grant”.

To kick off National Stroke Week on Monday, our team at the Bendigo Stroke Support Centre arranged a “pamper day” for members. Such a lovely way to start the week! A big thanks to the @bendigo_tafe hairdressing students for making our members feel extra special ❤️

@SaferCareVic Thank you for your continued support @SaferCareVic 👏

We couldn’t do the important work that we do for the Victorian stroke community without your support ❤️

This National Stroke Week we’re highlighting the wonderful work our Cardiovascular team is doing with @stroke_victoria. They've been boosting services and setting up support centres in regional Victoria to help stroke survivors regain function and return to work.
