June is International Aphasia Awareness Month!

❓Did you know that approximately 140,000 people in Australia live with aphasia?

🗣️ Aphasia is a communication difficulty that occurs when the language areas of the brain are damaged, which is most often caused by various types of acquired brain injury such as stroke, TBI, and even brain tumour.

Stay tuned this month as we share valuable information and resources to support those living with aphasia!
