My partner Debbie has been attending Speakeasy for 12 months now and we can't thank this wonderful and worthwhile charity enough. After suffering a severe stroke which affected her right side and took her speech leaving her with Aphasia .Debbie is fighting hard on a long road to recovery. She spent a few years in speech therapy which gave her a good grounding in her efforts to speak. Since moving on and attending Speakeasy the difference they've made to her speech and communication is amazing . A couple of weeks ago Debbie stood up in front everybody and gave a presentation about her life. Thank you Speakeasy for everything you do and making such a difference to our lives.
