AAA Zoom Groups
Aphasia groups are a great way to meet people with similar experiences in a supportive place. Aphasia groups can meet in-person, or online.
The AAA online groups (Zoom groups) started during the COVID-19 pandemic, because people could not meet in-person. We wanted to make sure that people with aphasia could still meet and support each other.
The Zoom groups are still running – people loved them!
When do the groups run?
- every four weeks on Monday morning (12pm QLD)
- every four weeks on Friday afternoon (2pm QLD)
Dates for the groups:
- Monday 28 April
- Friday 16 May

Our chat groups are mostly member-led.
Most of our members have had a stroke.
However, people with any type or cause of aphasia is welcome.
The members are very friendly and welcoming.
You will need:
- An email address to receive our meeting reminders.
- A computer or laptop with a webcam OR an iPad.
- A good internet connection.
- To download Zoom onto your device (you do not need an
account). - Previous experience joining a Zoom call is helpful.
- Your family member, carer or speech pathologist can help if you would like.
Our zoom group helps people to:
- Connect and make friends,
