I'm taking part in the Stride for Stroke challenge!

As many of you know, I suffered a stroke in August 2023. I was incredibly fortunate to receive the right treatment in a timely manner and have come through with mild after effects. Not everyone is so lucky. 

I joined #TeamStroke for Stride for Stroke. I will be taking one step for each of the 1.3 million stroke survivors in the UK. The 1.3 million steps challenge works out at 10,000 steps a day for 130 days, although I have given myself a little extra time and hope to complete this in about 180 days. 

Stroke Association is 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.
