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 MEAL - Friday 14th December
Please note that the date for our 2018 Christmas meal has now been arranged. It will take place on Friday, 14 December at the Davenport Golf Club once again. More details will be available nearer the time, but don't forget to reserve the date in your diary now.

The theme chosen for the 2019 calendar is Wildlife of Central America. These are some of the images taken on trips to Costa Rica and Panama by MADYSS member
Sheila Blamire who, as some of our newer members may not be aware, produces the calendar for MADYSS each year and is an excellent photographer.
The cost of the calendar remains at £10, which is great value. If you would like to purchase one or more calendars, please place your order with Sheila at the
Flower Pot meetings if possible, or email her at sheila@onlybirding.com, or call her on 01565 830168.
As in previous years, all profits from sales of the calendar will go to MADYSS and help subsidise your events
so please try and buy and/or sell as many as you can!!.
