I am taking part in the London Marathon Walk on the 23rd September to help raise not only funding for the stroke association but hopefully raise some more awareness for the illness.

Our well loved colleague Andy has recently suffered a stroke which really came from nowhere. I am pleased to say that Andy is currently recovering well in hospital and is being as inspirational as ever. Andy has been a part of the company since the day it started and has known some of the workers since before this also. Here more often than not colleagues become like a family member, Andy has definitely become family.

Many of my family, friends and colleagues will know I have taken part in a few small 5k fun runs previously but this event deserves a real challenge in hopes of raising some sizeable funding. I will be walking 26.2 miles. feel free to come along on the day. details can be found on discover adventure website.

I cannot stress more how fast a stroke can occur, how unexpected it can be and scary it must feel to be going through the stroke and the rehabilitation that follows ! I will not pretend I have any idea, but I would like to highlight to everyone how much support this charity could use to raise the awareness and better the treatments !

Please help me fundraise via this page and spread awareness by sharing my fundraising page.

Many thanks :) <3
