Story

In a crazy moment of twin madness, we have decided to do Walk the Wight together! 26.5 miles of beautiful, but tough, terrain, from one end of the Isle of Wight to the other. We last did this more than 20 years ago, when we were much younger (and fitter!), but we are walking through the blisters and are well on track to be ready for the big day. Based more than 200 miles apart, we can't train together, but we will come together on May 8th and nail this!!  

Over the past 18 months, the Stroke Association has been an invaluable support to Mum and Dad, and we want to say thank you by raising some funds for them. Walk the Wight is organised by Mountbatten Isle of Wight, an amazing charity providing end of life care and support to islanders. We therefore hope to be able to raise similar funds for the two charities.  Our team page will link to both.

We thank you in advance for any donations to these worthy causes. Knowing that we have support from you all, and are raising money for such fantastic organisations, will keep us going on the day!

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.
