Stride for Stroke

I'm taking part in the Stride for Stroke challenge!

I joined #TeamStroke for Stride for Stroke. I will be taking one step for each of the 1.3 million stroke survivors in the UK. The 1.3 million steps challenge works out at 10,000 steps a day for 130 days.

Stroke Association is 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.

My updates

Hi everyone! 👋🏻

Wednesday 31st Jul
Hiya!
As you may know, my dad had a severe stroke about 10 weeks ago now.

Since then, he has undergone brain surgery at Kings College hospital and is now at the Princess Royal in Bromley.

He is still paralysed and unable to walk, mostly unable to talk and we are still not sure what the future holds.

As you can imagine, I feel completely helpless and have been trying to think of something I can do which might make some difference.

Therefore I have decided to walk 1.3 million steps between now and December 8th - 1 for every stroke survivor in the UK.

Anyone that knows me, knows I am pretty lazy, so this is a big challenge for me 🤣 I’m determined to complete it, to try and feel like I am helping, even if it’s just in some small way.

Thank you to my sponsors
