Sam Ward is raising money for Stroke Association

Team: Sam and Jeff’s Thames Kayak Challenge 2025

Sam and Jeff’s Thames Kayak Challenge · 23 July 2025

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

Jeff and I are setting off on a Kayaking challenge starting on 23rd July in Lechlade in Gloucestershire and finishing on 30th July at the Thames Barrier in London. We will be travelling in one kayak approximately 160 miles over the 8 days. Jeff is raising money for the Alzheimer's Society and I am raising money for the Stroke Association.

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. With more donations and support from you, we can rebuild even more lives.
