Stroke Association
Anyone can have a stroke, although there are some things that make you more at risk than others. It’s important to know what the risk factors are and do what you can to reduce your risk.
Anyone can have a stroke
Many people think that strokes only happen to older people but stroke can strike anyone at any time.
Whilst most people who have a stroke are older, younger people can have strokes too, including children. One in four strokes in the UK happen in people under the age of 65.
