The UK Stroke Forum event is an annual educational research conference designed for healthcare professionals working in the field of stroke.
It is an opportunity to share academic research and participate in training workshops, encouraging sharing of best practise across the stroke care pathway.
Due to the scientific and medical nature of the conference, participants must be healthcare professionals, healthcare students, researchers or patient and public involvement (PPI representatives) working within the healthcare and/ or research sector.
Attendance from the general public or lived experience experts (stroke survivors) is not permitted unless in the case of invited speakers or those with a role as PPI representatives.
For questions around attendance, please email ukstrokeforum@stroke.org.uk
If you are looking for sources of information and support available to stroke survivors, please visit our helpline website.
If you would like to help shape how research is done you can sign up to join Stroke Voices in Research, a network of people affected by stroke who influence research design and which projects the Stroke Association fund.
To explore a wide range of resources, support options, and ways to get involved, please visit our dedicated support webpage: stroke.org.uk/stroke/support or call our helpline on 0303 3033 100.
