We support people to help rebuild lives after stroke.

Story

We are the University of Essex Speech and Language Society.

We are planning to eat a purely pureed diet for one week beginning on the 4th November 2013. That means completely blended meals at every meal time, as well as things like mashed banana for a snack!

All donations go to the National Stroke Association and we also hope to raise a little awareness of dysphagia (swallowing difficulties) which can occur after having a stroke.

Please help us raise money for this great cause. Approximately 150 000 people have a stroke every year in Britian alone. The money raised will help support people who have had a stroke and their families.

Thank you!
