About us

Dyscover provides long-term support and opportunities to people with aphasia and their families. Aphasia is a neurological condition, acquired through stroke, brain injury or rare form of dementia. Aphasia affects a person's communication, including their ability to find words, construct sentences and to understand language, both written and spoken. It is a very isolating and frustrating disability.

Dyscover works to inform, support and empower people with aphasia to manage their communication disability and to reengage with life.  We create an aphasia friendly community in which people feel included, valued and have a sense of purpose. We offer structured, therapeutic group sessions to over 80 adults per week, either in person or through online groups. For more information please see www.dyscover.org.uk
