Running Cardiff Half Marathon as part of #TeamStroke to help people like my Dad.
I joined #TeamStroke for the Cardiff Half Marathon 2025!
My dad had a stroke, and although we’ve been fortunate to receive amazing support, it has still been a huge challenge for our family. Going through this made me realise how many people are in the same position. There are over 1.3 million stroke survivors in the UK, and 100,000 strokes happen every year, which is one every five minutes. While we’ve struggled even with support, I can only imagine how much harder it must be for those who don’t have it. That’s why I’m fundraising, to help make sure stroke survivors and their families never have to face recovery alone.
