1.3 million people in the UK have survived a stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA). For many of them, there is no treatment to limit the damage stroke causes to the brain.
Across the UK British Heart Foundation researchers are determined to find new treatments for stroke.
We're funding £16.5 million of research into stroke, making us one of the largest independent funders in the UK.
