  • Topics include blood pressure, healthy eating, aqua aerobics, travelling, volunteering and fatigue.

  • We also try different activities such as arts and crafts, relaxation techniques, art therapy and Tai Chi.

  • We invite external speakers such as InterAct Stroke Support who read poetry, short stories and host quizzes.

  • We sometimes run monthly challenges such as taking photos on a theme. Members use our LEGS Social WhatsApp group to share interesting stories, photos and to stay in touch.
