Boroondara Stroke Support Group (BSSG) is a support group of stroke survivors and their carers, based in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Australia. We are now recognised as one of the most active and innovative community-based stroke support groups in Australia.

The Ashburton Support Group meetings happen on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month, either in person or on Zoom, from 7 pm to 9 pm. They are for family members and friends of loved ones with problematic alcohol, drug, or gambling use. They are led by volunteers with their own lived experience, and provide safe, confidential, and friendly places where members can learn strategies on how to cope, gain information and support and be among people who understand. All meetings are free, but you need to call to book a place at a meeting.
