Morwell Stroke Support Group
The Morwell
Stroke Support Group has been meeting since 1997. The Group was started by our President,
Marlene Austin and her husband John, after Marlene had a major stroke. At that time there was no
support for stroke survivors IN THE LATROBE VALLEY and many people have been helped
over the years by attending our meetings and sharing their stories. Our members now enjoy a cheery
and worthwhile life after their strokes.
The Group started in Morwell but later moved to the Latrobe Valley Hospital where our
meetings are now held. We meet in the Nicholson Ward meeting room on the first Tuesday of each
month.
This may vary if we have arranged an outing so it may be wise to contact one of the people below to confirm where
we are meeting.
The Morwell Stroke Support Group provides an atmosphere for stroke
survivors, carers and friends to make social contacts and to share experiences.
We have
guest speakers throughout the year, which, in an informal setting,
provides opportunity for discussion and questions.
