Running for my dad and other stroke survivors in the Great North Run as part of #TeamStroke
As many of you will know, my Dad had a stroke back in May 2021, affecting all of our lives. I was touched and so grateful for all of the support the stroke association offered my dad and my family at the time and afterwards. I can’t thank them enough for their support, but wanted to give back and join #TeamStroke for the Great North Run.
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.
