why run?

not only will you be running in a great event, you'll also be helping to support stroke survivors across the uk.

A stroke is a brain attack. It happens when the blood supply to part of the brain is cut off. Without blood the brain cells can be damaged or die. This damage can have different effects depending on where it happens in the brain. A stroke can affect the way the body works as well as how you think, feel and communicate.

All strokes are different. For some people the effects may be relatively minor and may not last long. Others may be left with more serious problems that make them dependent on other people.

The money you raise will go to support stroke survivors. At the Stroke Association we work to prevent stroke, support everyone touched by stroke, fund research and campaign for the rights of stroke survivors of all ages.
