Information for the public
After a stroke, some people have long-term health problems that can greatly affect quality of life. People who have had a stroke have told us that problems with feeling tired, worried, unfit, and low in confidence are common.
Our aim is to run a research study in the UK to test if an online programme can improve quality of life for people with long-term mild to moderate physical and/or mental health problems after a stroke.
We will test an online exercise and support rehabilitation programme to find out if it can help people recover after a stroke. You will join one of two groups, decided by chance. This means neither you nor the clinical and research team can choose which group you join, so the study treatments can be compared fairly. You have a chance of being in one of two groups.
Group 1A single online session of advice and support with a trained professional. Group 2The ReSTORe online rehabilitation programme which you can do at home over 10 weeks. This will include weekly group exercise and recovery support sessions. |
| We will ask you to complete a questionnaire 4 times over a year. These will ask about your quality of life, fatigue, confidence and activity levels. |
You can find out more by:
