May is #StrokeAwarenessMonth. 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 nhs.uk/actFAST
Body text reads: '1 in 5 people say they wouldn't be able to recognise the signs of a stroke.' Smaller body text reads: 'When stroke strikes Act F.A.S.T. Check Face, Arms, or Speech. Don't hesitate, it's Time to call 999.'

Do you have any plans for tomorrow's bank holiday?☀️ Whatever you’re doing, hopefully you won’t need us, but we’re here if you do. Please remember to only call an ambulance in an emergency and use NHS 111 for medical help and advice. 📷: Angela Porter from #TeamEEAST
