Stroke Week
8 August, 2023 - 11 August, 2023
Stroke is one of Australia’s biggest killers and a leading cause of disability. Each year an estimated 27,000 people experience their first stroke, which is one every 19 minutes.
Starting on Monday, August 7, the theme of this year’s National Stroke Week is ‘Fighting Stroke Together,’ which highlights the need to work together to prevent stroke. It also shines a light on the recovery outcomes that occur when people work together when a stroke strikes.
Old Treasury Building will be lit in green and blue for this event from sunrise to sunset on Tuesday 8 August to Friday 11 August.
