Hi Everyone!

So we have decided to do something crazy next year, and tackle the London Landmarks half marathon on the 6th April 2025 in aid of the Stroke association!

Those of you who know me will understand why this charity is so important, and next year will mark 10 years since I survived my stroke at 20 years old.

My stroke left me with no feeling on the left hand side of my body including my face; rendering me unable to walk, speak or even smile. Fortunately I was able to make a full recovery, but for alot of people this can result in a very different outcome.

The Stroke association were a huge support to me and my family, at a time of immense struggle and uncertainty; so it was a no brainer that we chose them to mark this milestone. Their specialist support, research, and campaigning are only possible with the courage and determination of the stroke community. With more donations and support from you, they can rebuild even more lives.

In addition, my best friend Sarah will also be running the half Marathon to support this amazing charity. We started running together as a bit of fun and fitness in preparation for each of our upcoming weddings, and found that we were a great motivation to one another. The 6th of April is also a very significant date, as this marks exactly six years In 2025 since Sarah lost her wonderful Mum Tina.

We are very grateful for any donations you can spare, and want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support 💜

Vicki & Sarah!
