A substantial legacy gift received by the Heart & Stroke Charity Croí from well-known Tuam business couple, the late Joe and Helen O’Toole is set to transform local and regional community supports for those recovering from a stroke through the establishment of the Joe & Helen O’Toole Stroke Hub at the Croí Centre in Newcastle Galway. Building has begun on this new facility which marks a significant advancement in post-hospital discharge stroke care and support services in the West of Ireland, made possible through the enormous generosity of the Joe and Helen O’Toole Charitable Trust.
The new Stroke Hub has been designed by architects Simon J Kelly and is being constructed by Carey Construction with a completion target of year end and being operational in early 2025. This new purpose-built facility will serve as a crucial resource for individuals recovering from stroke, offering essential rehabilitation programmes and carer support services. This new stroke hub will host Croí’s new stroke recovery day programme, which will provide a comprehensive range of therapies and supports to enhance the quality of life for stroke survivors and their families.
