World Stroke Day is held on 29th October each year. It is an opportunity to raise awareness of the serious nature and high rates of stroke, talk about prevention and treatment, and ensure better care and support for survivors. In 2023, Stroke is the leading cause of Disability worldwide and each year over 12 million people have strokes. Up to 90% of strokes are preventable, so there is hope.
The B.E.F.A.S.T. is an acronym developed for the general public to detect and initiate response to a possible stroke.
