What is Aphasia?
Aphasia is a communication disability that is caused by stroke, head injury or other illness. It affects the ability to speak, read, write and understand what’s being said and is a very frustrating and isolating condition.

Who goes to Dyscover?
90 people come to our centres each week. Most live in Surrey. We cater for adults of all ages. Most have become aphasic after a stroke.
Can I join Dyscover?
Anyone can phone or email us for more information. Our staff are used to helping people with aphasia. If we think we can help you, we will arrange an appointment for you to visit us. One of our Speech and Language Therapists will assess you. You can also find out more about Dyscover here. The next step is a trial visit to the group we think is most suitable for you.
