Story

For the past few years me and Ellie have taken part in various long disance challenges from an Ironman to Parish Walk to Long Mynd hike and now cycling from Land's End to John O'Groats this September. We are hoping to complete the route (874 miles) in 9 days, I'm sure there will be some great views, lots of chatting and definitely lots of eating along the way as well as probably feeling very tired and emotional at times! Weather forescast is looking ok at the moment so fingers are crossed and not much else we can do now except pack and make our way to Cornwall!   

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.


Thanks for your support and donations!
