The Young Stroke Service supports young stroke survivors in recovery. We can assess how you are doing, connect you with services, and show you treatment options.
This is a trial service and will run until December 2026.
We do not replace other services in the community.
Stroke changes a young person's life.
It affects their who they are, how they work and study, their relationships, and mental health.
Many young people are building their careers or caring for their families.
Young stroke survivors live with the impact of stroke for longer. But right now, services do not always meet their needs.
It is even harder to get help in rural and regional areas of Australia.
The Young Stroke Service aims to change this.
Our partners make the Young Stroke Service possible.
The Florey powers this collaboration.
The Australian government funds this service with a grant called the Medical Research Future Fund Rapid Translation Grant.
