I'm taking part in the TCS London Marathon as part of #TeamStroke
I joined #TeamStroke for the TCS London Marathon 2024.
On 21 April, I will be running the London Marathon in memory of my aunt Carol who sadly passed away in 2022. I'm following in the footsteps of my cousin Rachel who ran the London Marathon in 2023 raising funds for #TeamStroke in memory of her mum.
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.
