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.

Doing this for you Dad ♥️

Tuesday 29th Apr
Hi, im Laura I’m running half a marathon! ♥️♥️♥️
Part of team ‘Running for Robert’. 
Myself and two of my sisters are running at the Edinburgh marathon festival to raise money for the Stroke Association in memory of our Dad who passed of a Stroke in 2023. 
He passed when my little girl was only 2 months old. I wish he had got to see the amazing little girl she is. 
I miss my dad every single day and would do anything to see hear his non funny funny jokes again. 
Love you so much. 

I did not realise before the terrifying and devastating impact a stroke can have. 
Thank you so much to everyone who has donated ♥️♥️♥️
