Welcome to MADYSS
In September 2004, MADYSS was developed from the Stroke Association's Family Support Unit at Macclesfield Hospital by a group of younger stroke survivors and their carers from within the borough of Macclesfield and its districts.
Our aim is to support both the stroke survivors and their carers by holding informal monthly meetings and social events.
Each stroke and each individual's response to their new circumstances are unique and the journey back to optimum health is often exceedingly difficult. However, with the right attitude and motivation, together with a fun environment and support from others who know the challenges and frustrations, we believe rehabilitation as possible.
MADYSS is open to any stroke survivor and carer who are looking to become part of a supportive community.

CHRISTMAS LUNCH
Due to unforeseen circumstances, we are unable to have our Christmas meal at the Deanwater Hotel in Handforth as the Hotel will be closing
its doors on 18 November. Instead, The Plough at Eaton is booked for Monday 11 December, which is our usual monthly meeting date.
Please make a note of the change of date and location in your diaries or calendars.
The cost of the Christmas meal at The Plough will be £25.00 and that will need to be paid
in full at the November meeting, 13 November.
Please note that menu choices will be taken at that meeting as we need to submit them the next day! However, the menu will also be
available at the October meeting if some members wish to make their choices at that point and pay then too.
Would BACS payees please use their SURNAME and THE PLOUGH as reference.
MADYSS Meetings:
Don't forget, as it's the Christmas Meal in December there will be no Flower Pot.
