Are you looking for My Stroke Guide?

As of 11 March 2024, My Stroke Guide merged with the Stroke Association website to help make sure you can find all the information and support you need in one place.

This change is in response to valuable feedback from our users who found having both My Stroke Guide and the Stroke Association website confusing.

You can still find all the trusted information and resources, which were on My Stroke Guide here on our website.
