National Stroke Week
4 - 10 August 2025
Anyone could have a stroke or save a life
National Stroke Week encourages the community to learn the F.A.S.T. (Face, Arms, Speech and Time) signs of stroke so they can save a life in the event that someone they know is experiencing a stroke.
Stroke is always a medical emergency. Early recognition of a stroke can save lives, and with your help, we can spread this life-saving knowledge far and wide.
All funds raised through National Stroke Week will help Stroke Foundation continue to promote F.A.S.T. awareness to the community.
