The #Shetland Stroke Support Group had a great time at the #CunningsburghShow at their stall with NHSShetland. They were raising awareness of stroke & the importance of acting FAST if you think someone is having a #stroke. Thank you for sharing this important message!🙌

The FAST Roadshow and online roadshow event was very successful and reached over 1100 staff. This was a refresher for some and others learned this vital skill for the first time. Thanks to all for taking part. Keep spreading the word and save lives!
