Story

This years challenge involves not just me but a team of us walking 85 miles in under 24 hours around the Isle of Man in the Parish Walk (no running allowed!). It is also only possible due to the help of Bev and Di for being my support crew as everyone who enters has to have their own driver and vehicle, so a massive thank you to them!

As most of you are aware The Stroke Association is an important cause for me, my mum (Julie Forbes) suffered a stroke in 2006 and sadly passed away in 2013. During that time I learnt a lot about stroke and think it is important to continue raising awareness and to support research to help reduce the debilitating after effects a stroke can have. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
