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. Specialist support, research and campaigning are only possible with the courage and determination of the stroke community. With more donations and support from you, we can rebuild even more lives.

Although I’m a survivor I’m running (hobbling) in memory of my mate Colin who had his personality and dignity stolen by stroke - lovely man and husband Wong be forgotten.

I’m not honestly sure I’ll be able complete this but those that know me window I’ll give it everything I’ve got and a bit more too!
