How to help

The aphasia population continues to grow, and Connect is the only organisation dedicated to changing services and improving the quality of life for people living with aphasia throughout the UK and beyond.

Connect needs your help to support those whose lives have been turned upside down by aphasia.  Please consider:

Thank you very much for your generosity.

Connect relies almost entirely on charitable gifts and donations, applying to independent Trusts and Foundations and statutory bodies for grants, seeking corporate sponsorship and generating some earned income through training, sales of publications and room hire.

Connect were the first support that we had, besides our speech therapist, after my husband's stroke in September 2003 and I shall always be grateful to their great team."
