I'm taking part in the Swim for Stroke challenge!
I joined #TeamStroke for Swim for Stroke.
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.

Mackenzie Swimming Challenge
Saturday 5th Aug Hi everyone. It is coming up to three years since mum had her stroke. Fortunately I was there at the time so we caught it quickly - however she has definitely deteriorated in the last couple of years. The service she (and we) received from occupational therapy such as mobility exercises, speech therapy, physio, home visits, simply chatting with mum to make her feel less afraid and more confident was second to none. This is our chance to give something back. And as mum is Ripon’s, Yorkshire’s and indeed the Kingdom’s finest swimming teacher, it seems fitting that this is our way to raise funds for this organisation. The aim is for me, Laura and Amy to swim 90 miles (in total) to celebrate mum’s 90th birthday by my own birthday on September 30th. If you feel able to donate even £1 to this cause I would be immensely grateful 🏊♀️ Share
Thank you to my sponsors
