InterAct Stroke Support Company Information
General information
InterAct Stroke Support is an award-winning charity aiding stroke recovery by using professional actors to deliver hospital readings & community projects to stroke survivors.
Stroke is now the second biggest killer in England and Wales and the main cause of serious disability in the U.K. A stroke can affect anyone of any age from any background and rehabilitation can be a long and difficult process.
It is during hospital recuperation that InterAct makes the difference as early interventions with stroke survivors are a tremendous boost to the recovery process.
There is now a growing body of evidence that stimulation through reading and conversational interaction can help the brain find new neural pathways, a phenomenon known as "adaptive rewiring." InterAct encourages adaptive rewiring, work which has been shown to improve patients' mood and motivation, alleviating depression and boredom as well as increasing confidence as patients are able to practise their new-found communcation skills in a non-judgemental environment.
InterAct Stroke Support works to improve the rate and quality of an individual's recovery from a stroke by:
improving mood
alleviating post-stroke depression
increasing self-esteem
boosting communication confidence
stimulating the brain
providing entertainment
We currently read in 21 hospitals and over 50 stroke clubs in the UK.
