Please dial 999 if you or a loved one has #stroke symptoms. You may think you're safer at home but it's not worth the risk. The sooner specialist stroke services can treat you the better.

Thanks Dr Hannah Stockley 💙 for the retweet. You did 2 of my angiograms. You were kind, patient and reassuring. Made all the difference. My family and I are so grateful.

Our stroke units are getting busier but still low attendances with Transient Ishaemic Attack (TIA/mini stroke). Hospital is the best place if you have have symptoms of #stroke. Lucy reminds us of Face Arms Speech Time (act FAST). Pass it on! @GM_HSC youtu.be/QzecHqHQd3g
