As some of you may already know, in the summer of 2022, Natalie's Mum, Liz, had a stroke whilst on holiday in the South of France.  Having been in intensive care for five weeks over there, she returned to the UK where she went through a period of six months in hospital rehabilitating.

The support that the family have received from the Stroke Association, and the support that will be ongoing in the coming years, has been amazing.  I want to do what I can to help them raise funds to ensure that families in the future are able to access the invaluable support that the Stroke Association offers. Please, if you can spare some money to help other families deal with the devastating effect that a stroke can have on, not just the person themselves, but everyone around them, that would be amazing.

The Stroke Association are here to support people to rebuild their lives after a stroke. They believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after a stroke. They provide specialist support, fund critical research and campaign to make sure people affected by a stroke get the very best care and support to rebuild their lives. Rebuilding lives after a stroke is a team effort. It takes the determination of stroke survivors and carers, the generosity of supporters and the dedication of the healthcare and research communities to get there.
