I'm taking part in the Great North Run 2025 as part of #TeamStroke

I joined #TeamStroke for the Great North Run 2025.

On the 29th August 2023 my 34 year old husband had a stroke whilst at work and spent 10 weeks in hospital. I am immensely proud of how far he has come but the stroke has had a huge impact on our lives as a family as we continue to navigate life as it is now. 

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.

I can’t actually believe I am doing this but doing the great north run has been on my bucket list for quite some time and now seems like as good of a time as any to go for it. 
I’m doing this for you Chris and for everyone else affected by a stroke! 

Thank you to my sponsors
