•2. With an ischaemic infarct
•3. Able to perform a simple reciprocal bilateral foot tapping task
•4. Walk safely on a treadmill with or without mobility aids and to give informed consent.

•2. Aphasia significantly limiting communication
•3. History of previous symptomatic stroke or neurological disease
•4. A mental state that precludes safe participation (as stated by GP or referring consultant)
•5. Any known contraindication to safe participation in exercise.
