Aphasia Booklets and Wallet Cards
AphasiaNZ Booklets
AphasiaNZ produces a 12-page booklet explaining aphasia. The differences between non-fluent aphasia and fluent aphasia are outlined, and communication strategies for both are suggested.
The booklet is available in English, Te Reo Māori, Samoan, Tongan, Chinese and Hindi.
We also have booklets explaining Aphasia due to brain tumour and Primary Progressive Aphasia.
Other information leaflets and documents are also available. Click here for our information sheet for friends of people with aphasia – this is full of advice to help you maintain and hopefully strengthen your friendship.
Please note – electronic copies of our booklets are not available. Our resources are able to be sent within New Zealand only.

AphasiaNZ Wallet Cards
The “I have aphasia” wallet card is a small card that can help those with aphasia to communicate with others.
The double-sided cards explain what aphasia is and asks those that view the card to speak clearly, slowly and give you time to answer.
People with aphasia, and those with a loved one with aphasia, can have cards sent out free of charge by contacting us and providing us with your postal address.
