I'm taking part in the Great North Run as part of #TeamStroke
On the 18th of December 2023, Elles dad, Don McCabe, suffered a massive ischemic stroke whilst on a work trip.
Even though he was treated quickly he has been left with significant brain injury, paralysis, aphasia and apraxia of speech. He has spent 4 months in a stroke unit, and is embarking on intensive rehabilitation in a neurological unit in Newcastle.
I am grateful to be able to do this alongside Elle and raise money for an amazing cause on behalf of a truly inspirational man and amazing family.
There are over 1.3 million stroke survivors in the UK, with one person suffering a stroke every 5 minutes. The Stroke Association provides support and advice to families just like ours, and relies on donations to provide vital services, campaign for better care and fund research into the fourth leading cause of death in the UK. I’m running the Great North Run on my 25th birthday to raise money for a cause very close to our hearts. I’m absolutely not a runner, so this is a huge challenge for me. Please consider donating whatever you can for a very worthwhile charity.
