Neuro Café

The Neuro Café is an online weekly education and discussion group on Wednesdays from 6:00 - 6:45pm.
It is run by a physiotherapist or a member of the LEGS Team and is open to all LEGS Members, for free.
The Neuro Café is a place where participants motivate, challenge and encourage each other.
It is filled with laughter and has become a really enjoyable part of
our week.

What topics do we discuss?

The weekly topics of the Neuro Café vary.
Participants tell us what topics they would like us to discuss.
Topics include blood pressure, healthy eating, aqua aerobics, travelling, volunteering and fatigue.
We also try different activities such as arts and crafts, relaxation techniques, art therapy and Tai Chi.
We invite external speakers such as InterAct Stroke Support who read poetry, short stories and host quizzes.
We sometimes run monthly challenges such as taking photos on a theme. Members use our LEGS Social WhatsApp group to share interesting stories, photos and to stay in touch.
