My Story

I have chosen to run the Great North Run 2025 for Stroke Association.

Stroke Association offers support for stroke survivors to help them rebuild their lives, as well as funding critical research into stroke prevention, treatment and rehabilitation.

I witnessed first hand not only the detrimental effects a stroke can have but the amazing rehabilitative opportunities for stroke patients, after my grandad suffered a stroke.

I have also spent 4 months this year working on the stroke wards, as a physiotherapist, actively playing a role in the rehabilitation of stroke patients , helping to restore their function and independence following a stroke.

Therefore, I decided this was the perfect time to set myself a personal challenge and raise money for an amazing charity.

Any donations would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
