Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. 

I am running the Cardiff half marathon in October for The Stroke Association. As you may know, my daughter, Annabel, suffered a stroke in 2011, at the age of just 22. Annabel received a great deal of help and support from the Stroke Association, which has helped her put her life back together. She is now an Ambassador for the Association and is a major fundraiser.

I want to raise as much money as I can, not just to help stroke survivors like Annabel, but also to support research to help prevent strokes in the first place. Every pound I raise will be matched by my employer, Barclays Bank (up to a maximum of £1000), so a massive thank you to them.
