The Cost of Living With Stroke
For too long, stroke and its impact on individuals and on Aotearoa as a whole has been ignored by those with the power to make change.
Election 2026
Learn about Stroke Aotearoa New Zealand's Election 2026 advocacy priorities, calling for action to prevent stroke, improve recovery and support those affected.
Stroke affects thousands of New Zealanders every year, yet too many people continue to face unnecessary barriers to prevention, treatment and recovery.
As part of Election 2026, Stroke Aotearoa New Zealand is advocating for meaningful change through three key priorities: highlighting The Cost of Living with Stroke, supporting the Train 5, Keep 5 neurology workforce campaign, and championing better support for carers.
Train five, keep five
The New Zealand Government needs to fund enough public hospital neurologists to meet the increasing need.
