Over 350,000 adults in the UK suffer from aphasia – but 54% of Brits have never heard of the condition, research has found.
Aphasia is most commonly caused by having a stroke, with more than one in three stroke survivors impacted by the disorder, which affects language and communication.
The ability to speak, read, write, and or/use numbers, are all affected by aphasia – with just 4% of Brits feeling very confident that they could communicate with someone with the condition.
