I'm taking part in the GetPRO Bath Half Marathon 2027 as part of #TeamStroke
Every day in the UK, another 240 people wake up to the catastrophic impact of a stroke. With strength, determination and the right support, recovery is possible.By taking on this challenge with Team Stroke, I'll be fundraising to provide tailored support to tens of thousands of stroke survivors each year, fund vital scientific research, and campaign to secure the best care and support for everyone affected by stroke.
Every donation helps someone find strength through support at a time they need it most. Thank you so much for being part of this journey with me.

Stroke Nurse for a cause!
Thursday 22nd Oct🏃♀️💜 Running with Purpose, Running from the Heart – Bath Half Marathon 2027! 💜🏃♀️
I’m taking on the Bath Half Marathon 2027, and this time, every step will mean something extra special to me. ❤️
Let me start by saying… I’m definitely NOT a professional runner! 😅 I’m not the fastest, and I probably won’t be breaking any records. But I love running. It has taught me discipline, perseverance, patience, and the importance of looking after my own health. It reminds me that progress isn’t always about speed — sometimes, it’s simply about showing up, pushing yourself a little further, and not giving up. 💪
As a Stroke Nurse Practitioner at the Royal United Hospital (RUH), Bath, caring for people affected by stroke is something very close to my heart. I see the challenges stroke survivors and their families face, but I also witness their incredible strength, courage, and determination.
And this cause is even more personal to me because my mum is a stroke survivor too. ❤️
So, this run is more than just 13.1 miles.
💜 I’m running for the stroke survivors I care for.
💜 I’m running for the families whose lives have been changed by stroke.
💜 I’m running for my love of running and the joy it brings me.
💜 And most especially, I’m running for my mum. ❤️
My goal is to raise £275 for the Stroke Association, a charity that supports stroke survivors and helps people rebuild their lives after stroke.
I know £275 might seem like a small target, but every pound represents kindness, hope, and support for someone who needs it.
If you could spare a few pounds to support my run, I would be incredibly grateful. No donation is too small, and if donating isn’t possible, sharing this post or simply cheering me on would mean so much! 🥰
I may not be the fastest runner on the course, but I’ll be running with a grateful heart, a purpose in every step, and a very special person in mind.
I’m not running to win a race. I’m running for a cause that’s worth every mile. 💜
Thank you so much for supporting me on this journey!
