Drop in Stroke Club (DISC)
DISC is a drop in service that aims to offer somewhere for stroke survivors to meet up in a relaxed atmosphere and also give carers an opportunity to meet with others in the same circumstances. DISC meets on Thursdays between 2 & 4pm at Buckland Community Centre, Malins Road, Portsmouth, PO2 7BL.
