Story

For those of you who know the situation with my big brother David, there are no other words to describe him than my rock, my best friend and someone whom I will always look up to. I am going to be swimming the equivalent of the width of the English Channel - which is 1320 lengths of a 25 meter pool - and will take me around 6 months to compete. This is to raise funds for the Stroke Association. My goal of £525 will go towards achieving things such as: 

£56 - cost of a new volunteer

£130 - help pay for research into new treatments 

£250 - 1hr helpline activity 

£525 - block communication

When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. Life changes instantly and recovery is tough. But the brain can adapt. Our specialist support, research and campaigning are only possible with the courage and determination of the stroke community.
