Remember F.A.S.T for the signs of a stroke.

Face – has their face fallen on one side? Can they smile?
Arms – can they raise both arms and keep them there?
Speech – is it slurred?
Time – it’s time to call 999.

When stroke strikes remember to Act F.A.S.T. https://orlo.uk/TCTky

We’re looking forward to Gatley Festival this weekend

We’ll be promoting our free, community “Welcome Cafe”, as well as selling raffle tickets to win this beautiful John Lewis picnic hamper 😍.
