What We're Doing

This year we're running the London Marathon to raise funds and support the Stroke Association.

Why We're Doing It

Last year a good friend of ours suffered a stroke. It was totally unexpected, he was fit and healthy and had no reason to suspect he was at risk.

Luckily enough someone realised what was happening to him (she had seen the adverts about recognising a stroke) and she called an ambulance.

More luck came his way at the hospital where the doctor that attended him felt he was fit enough to use a new treatment on him.

Within a few hours he began to recover his speech and the use of his arm.

Without that advert and without the treatment things could easily have taken a very different turn…

We’re grateful that luck was on his side, he’s alive and well without any serious after effects, and he’s back at circuits and keeping as fit and healthy as ever!

It’s an amazing personal story and we felt we should do our bit to support the charity that helped make it happen.
