The FAST campaign has launched for 2018! We KNOW this helps Kiwis survive and recover from stroke, so it is such an important kaupapa to promote. This year, you'll notice a change in the TV ad and other materials. As well as the familiar Face, Arm, Speech message, the T stands for Take action - call 111, instead of Time. This is because it is really important that people know that a stroke is a medical emergency, and to take action and get an ambulance there ASAP! The Ministry of Health, the Health Promotion Agency and the Stroke Foundation are working together on this campaign.
