For Chris and Janet

Great North Run 2025

Training Hard

As you can see, Emily, Abbie and I are all running the Great North Run this year.

We have decided to support the Stroke Association in memory of Chris (Uncle Chris) and Janet (Grandma). Chris and Janet both died after suffering severe and catastrophic stroke, within a couple of months of each other. 

They were taken from us without warning, and far too soon, and our family was devastated. However, we have no doubts that they would definitely want us to get on with life. So here we are, training hard for the big day in a couple of months!

Please support us :)

We are taking part in the Great North Run 2025 as part of #TeamStroke

We have joined #TeamStroke for the Great North Run 2025.

There are over 1.3 million stroke survivors in the UK, with 100,000 strokes happening in the UK each year. That's one stroke every five minutes.

We're here to support people to rebuild their lives after stroke. We believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke, so we work with the stroke community to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support. We rely on your support to provide vital services, campaign for better stroke care and fund research into preventative and rehabilitative treatments.
