I'm taking part in the TCS London Marathon as part of #TeamStroke

Last year i did something i never thought i would do... i ran the London Marathon for The Stroke Association in memory of my mother and all those affected by stroke and this year im doing it all again!!
I have 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.
