Aphasia Re-Connect is a national charity with the primary aim of connecting people who suffered a stroke and now experience aphasia, via a variety of support groups.

The group was founded in 2017 by Sally McVicker, a qualified speech and language therapist, who was motivated by the large number of people who expressed the need for communication support in the longer term.

The charity seeks to promote 3 key values in inclusion, participation, and community through supporter conversation, and giving access to communication.

Aphasia Re-Connect offers a vast variety of groups so that everyone, whether they prefer face-to-face groups or online ones, or whether they prefer to just chat or do a particular activity like cooking, can find the support group that fits them, with the ultimate goal for people to gain communication skills.
