In 2016 we had a very successful conference for people with aphasia
“it was fantastic”
“great two days”
It was so popular we have been asked to run another
The conference will be held in Coventry in England. March 2020
Families, friends, aphasia and stroke organisations, and health professionals are also invited.
People with aphasia have helped plan the conference and will chair the sessions.
All information will be presented in a way that is easier for people with aphasia.
There will be support from therapists and students to help people to join in.
We will discuss ways that people can ‘live well with aphasia’.
- technology and aphasia, learn and have a go
- what’s happening about aphasia in the UK and around the world
- research
- support for carers of people with aphasia
- travel with aphasia
- volunteering with aphasia

This is a wonderful opportunity
