If someone close to you has had a stroke, you may have found yourself becoming a carer very quickly. As the course introduction explains, “Life can change overnight. There is a lot to learn, and not much time to adjust.”
PramaLife, a local charity, is working with NHS and Stroke Association colleagues to offer a free five‑week information course for people caring for someone after a stroke. The sessions are practical, supportive, and designed to help carers build skills, ask questions, and connect with others who understand their journey.
