We are taking part in the Great North Run 2025 as part of #TeamStroke
We're running the Great North Run 2025 for my wonderful mam who suffered a stroke in November 2024 and is on her journey with recovery.
Iona is far more versed in running than me, Katie, but I wanted to take the opportunity to give back to the Stroke Association after a life altering few months.
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.
