SSO resources

We have a number of resources to help you to strengthen your organisation, to engage in advocacy and to hear about good practice in long term stroke care.

We're pleased to share the updated SSO Toolkit. This toolkit has been developed with input from our SSO members and we hope that wherever you are on your SSO journey that you find some of the information, resources and insights in the toolkit helpful. This toolkit is the ‘core’ resource offering guidance on developing and growing an SSO. It is intended to support key aspects of developing an organization: people, purpose, management and impact. We will follow this core resource with a suite of manuals that will delve deeper into topics including campaigning and advocacy and life after stroke issues.

The Global Stroke Bill of Rights is an important priority for the World Stroke Organization. These rights identify the aspects of care that are important for ALL stroke survivors and caregivers from across the world.
