Who are Spindpals?

Spindpals is a community founded and run by survivors of Stroke and TBI and their carers

Our members come from all over the World and have many different cultures, faiths, languages and backgrounds. We all have one thing in common. We all survived TBI and Stroke and want to help others who are sharing the same journey.

The community is run and managed by its members. We support each other in our day to day living and work to help build futures for others who are just embarking on this long and difficult road.

We are not here simply to discuss our conditions, we are here to talk about all aspects of our lives. To share the ups and downs, the successes and failures, to talk about our daily lives, and share our life stories for others to learn from.

Within the membership we also have many carers who are supporting loved ones through recovery and beyond. We are here for their needs too. To help them understand what this means for them and to support them to move forwards in the same way we support survivors.

We are a community of friends, so do not feel afraid to make contact with anyone to say hello, ask advice or offer support. Reach out to other members by joining groups and adding new friends. Always remember a stranger is simply a friend you haven’t met yet.

If you want to help us run and expand the community please feel free to contact us. We are always looking for volunteers to help keep this site running, write blog, act as ambassadors for new members, and help us keep the content relevant and updated.

Enjoy your time here and feel free to give us feedback how we can improve the site, We want to make sure it meets your support needs and continue to improve our service as we progress.

Welcome to Spindpals and we hope you enjoy being a member as much as we enjoy having you as part of the community.
