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. If you haven't seen the recent TV campaign, check it out here: https://youtu.be/5Fxnew5vLPI

Working as dietitians on the stroke unit at Addenbrooke's hospital, we see the impact of stroke on people every day. The Stroke Association are fantastic resource for people following stroke, providing emotional, financial and practical support to help them rebuild their lives, so this February we are going to be "Skipping for Stroke" for 15 minutes every day, we'd appreciate any donation no matter how small to help the Stroke Association in their invaluable work in supporting people affected by stroke and their tireless work of raising the profile of stroke care across the UK.
