Purely Pureed · 4 November 2013

Every day in the UK, another 240 people wake up to the catastrophic impact of a stroke. The Stroke Association is the only charity in the UK providing lifelong support for all stroke survivors and their families.

Story

We are the University of Essex Speech and Language Society.

We are planning to eat a purely pureed diet for one week beginning on the 4th November 2013. That means completely blended meals at every meal time, as well as things like mashed banana for a snack!

All donations go to the National Stroke Association and we also hope to raise a little awareness of dysphagia (swallowing difficulties) which can occur after having a stroke.

Please help us raise money for this great cause. Approximately 150 000 people have a stroke every year in Britian alone. The money raised will help support people who have had a stroke and their families.

Thank you!
