On 4th February our daddy had a stroke aged 42. He had an operation on his brain and he has had to learn to see, walk, eat and talk again. I want to raise money for this charity because they help stroke survivors like my dad and they support their families too.

I will be walking or jogging a mile every day for the next 4 weeks.

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.
