Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Dyscover was established as a charity in 1994, to provide long-term support and opportunities to people with aphasia and their families.

Aphasia is a neurological condition which affects a person’s ability to find words, construct sentences, and to understand language, both spoken and written. It can range from mild to severe and can be a long-term condition, which impacts whole family. It is also isolating, frustrating and is usually acquired without warning, most often through a stroke, but can also be caused by brain injury, or be associated with a rare dementia called Primary Progressive Aphasia

Dyscover work to inform, support and empower people with aphasia, and their families, to manage their communication disability and to re-engage with life. They create an aphasia-friendly community in which people feel included, valued and have a sense of purpose.

Dyscover offer structured, therapeutic group sessions for around 80 adults with aphasia each week, in person at Leatherhead and Kingston, and online, using zoom. More people with aphasia, and
their families, are supported through information and advice calls, short courses, extra activities sessions and other therapy support. 

Please help me support this charity. Thank you.
