Please firstly forgive us if you have
been sent this in error: it has been sent only to those who opened the
email regarding the new publication ‘Successful Stroke Survivor’ by Tom Balchin in December 2011. With the concentration on fulfilling this 4 year
project, the ARNI Trust missed out being able to celebrate its Decade
Year.

instructors are invited to an exclusive two-day Lecture Series at
the prestigious Royal Society of Medicine on 28th May and

concern across the stroke care pathway as possible. We
will discuss cutting-edge solutions and look at the
impact of ARNI over the last ten years.
