East Kent Strokes

EKS supports adults and children in East Kent who are stroke survivors, plus their families and carers. We run monthly peer-to-peer support coffee mornings in Ashford, Canterbury and Margate (often followed by lunch!) which give our members the opportunity to make new friends and meet up with those who face the same challenges. We also have a programme of trips running throughout the year to places such as gardens, wildlife parks and the theatre. Transport is provided in accessible minibuses to give everyone the opportunity to come along. Our specialist EKS Childhood Stroke division provides support to the parents of childhood stroke survivors and opportunities to socialise at events during the year and at a very special trip to the pantomime every Christmas.
