Story
Thanks for visiting our fundraising page. Me and my mum are both running the 5k in Hyde Park on 7th September for Connect because she had a stroke 9 years ago which left her with the communication disability aphasia.
When my mum had her stroke she could hardly speak or understand anything people were saying to her. Going to Connect was amazing for my mum as it put her in touch with other people who had aphasia and helped her reconnect to the world. Now she is the Deputy Chair of Trustees and is active in organising local groups for other people with aphasia.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Connect - the Communication Disability Network gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
So please sponsor us now!
