I'm taking part in the Cardiff Half Marathon as part of #TeamStroke
I joined #TeamStroke for the Cardiff Half Marathon.
I have always wanted to run a half marathon and been far too intimidated but Olly suggested I give this one a go, especially as he is also taking part, and so on the spur of the moment I signed up. I am delighted to be running for the stroke association as it's such a worthwhile cause and has touched many friends and family over the years.
From the Stroke Association; 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.
Thank you for your valuable support in giving a few pennies which I will hope will mount up to a significant total and make the pain worthwhile.
Many thanks
