York Nightstop receives no statutory grant funding for its work, yet its volunteer hosts, drivers and other workers make an incredibly valuable and unique contribution to the community of York. The Duke of York also officially opened the Millennium Bridge during his visit. The service will be led by the Salvation Army Band, and you are welcome to join in. Further details of the churches activities can be found on its CommuniGate site.
Dysphasia is a language disorder brought on by a stroke or head injury.
While it affects language, it is important that we all realise it does not affect intelligence. For a person with dysphasia, the words may be hard to find, but the thought is there. Speakability York is a social support group for people with dysphasia. If you have dysphasia and would like to meet other people in the same situation, you are welcome to come along to their next meeting which is being held 2pm on Tuesday, June 14,at the Friends' Meeting House in Friargate, York.
