Today is all about raising awareness of stroke because 1 in 4 of us are at risk in our lifetime. Knowing the signs could save a life.
👉 Remember the #ActFAST test:
Face – Can they smile? Does one side droop?
Arms – Can they raise both arms?
Speech – Is their speech slurred or strange?
Time – If you spot any of these signs, it’s time to call 999 immediately.
⏱ Time lost is brain lost. The quicker someone gets emergency care, the better their chances of survival and recovery.
✨ While some risk factors can’t be changed, healthy lifestyle choices really do make a difference. Regular movement, balanced nutrition, not smoking and managing stress all help reduce stroke risk. Even small changes add up to better long-term health.
Let’s spread the word, share the signs and make sure more people know how to #ActFAST.
