INVITE: Living with swallowing difficulties after stroke can affect so much more than eating and drinking. It can impact confidence, social connections and everyday life - and it’s something many people experience quietly.

We’d love you to join us for an upcoming webinar exploring life with post-stroke dysphagia, the challenges of accessing swallowing rehabilitation, and how telehealth could help make support more accessible.

Hear from Dr Emma Wallace from the University of Sydney as she shares insights from her research, alongside Karla McKenzie, who will share their lived experience of navigating dysphagia after stroke.

You’ll also hear from Lisa Yates about the support available through Stroke Foundation.

Whether you’re living with dysphagia, supporting someone who is, or simply want to learn more, you’re invited to join: https://strokefoundation.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_D2QmqZ-yQg2eWquxw2Q1Aw #/registration
