I'm taking part in the TCS London Marathon as part of #TeamStroke
I joined #TeamStroke for the TCS London Marathon 2026.
There are over 1.4 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.
In 2021, when I was 17 years old my dad passed away from a sudden stroke and his dream was to always run the London marathon, unfortunately this dream was cut short. Through running this not only do I want to fulfill something he dreamed to do, but also hope more reasearch can be put into neurological reasearch so families do not have to experience what we did and have their lives cut so short. My aunt also had 2 strokes so this is a charity extremely close to my heart. Let’s beat this!
