Joe Korner, Director of Communications at The Stroke Association said:

"Across London the stroke care you get depends on where you live. We have some of the best stroke care in the world, but there are some areas of the capital where we need to see urgent improvements so that all Londoners can get the best possible stroke treatment. We believe that developing at least eight specialist stroke centres is the best way to do this.

The majority of respondents to the Healthcare for London consultation agree that change is urgently needed to ensure the best possible care for everyone and there is support for the proposed changes to stroke care in the capital. The Stroke Association believes that all Londoners deserve access to the best emergency and acute stroke treatment and long term support."
