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.
I personally am taking part after my partner, Geoff suffered a stroke on the 17th July, thankfully with the fast reaction from the first response and paramedics, and also the fantastic treatment fron the resus team and subsequently Ward 7 at MKUH, he's on the road to a full recovery! But he's one of the lucky ones, I saw for myself, whilst Geoff was on stroke ward, how much worse it could've been. This is my way of giving back and my way also of thanking everyone involved in me and many others stroke journeys.
