Responding to the requests of other organisations for advice on matters relating to stroke medicine.
Encouraging members to provide and organise education and training opportunities in their locality for all professionals interested in stroke care.
Facilitating research by forming an informal network of researchers and possible collaborators.
Organising an annual forum at which research relevant to stroke medicine can be presented and discussed and which may be organised in association with other organisations.
