SIR - On behalf of the Stroke Association, I'm writing to request the help of your readers. We would like your readers to ask their MP to sign Early Day Motion (EDM) 1186 National Audit Office Report on Treating Strokes.
Stroke is the third largest killer and the leading single cause of adult disability in the UK and costs the UK £7bn a year. Yet, strokes are being misdiagnosed and ignored. Please help the 130,000 people who have a stroke each year and the 300,000 who are living with a disability as a result of a stroke by asking your MP to sign EDM 1186.
HONOR BLACKMAN,
On behalf of the Stroke Association.
