I'm taking part in the Great North Run 2026 as part of #TeamStroke

I joined #TeamStroke for the Great North Run 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.

No survivor should have to face life after stroke without stroke support, providing consistent, tailored help on the long journey to recovery.

We work with the stroke community to ensure 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.

Gift Aid I am a UK taxpayer and would like to Gift Aid this donation and any donations I have made in the past four years, or I make in the future to the Stroke Association. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax each tax year (6 April to 5 April), than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all of my donations, it is my responsibility to pay any difference. If you pay Income Tax at the higher or additional rate and want to receive the additional tax relief due to you, you must include all your Gift Aid donations on your Self-Assessment tax return or ask HM Revenue and Customs to adjust your tax code.

Running the GNR - The Why?

Thursday 28th May

Hey Everyone!!! I’m Running the Great North Run for the Stroke Association ❤️

On Sunday 13th September, I’ll be taking on the Great North Run – my first half marathon – and I’m doing it in memory of my close family members who we sadly lost to stroke.

Losing Family to this devastating disease has been incredibly hard. Stroke can strike suddenly and change lives in an instant – not just for the person affected, but for the whole family. The Stroke Association does vital work supporting survivors, funding research, and providing help to families like mine when we needed it most.

That’s why I’ve set myself this challenge. Training will be tough (I’m a 5-6.5k Guy🤣), but every mile I run is for them and for everyone impacted by stroke.

I’d be incredibly grateful if you could support me by donating whatever you can afford. Every pound really does make a difference – it helps provide life-changing support, information, and hope t

Thank you to my sponsors
