I'm walking 131km this May for Stroke Foundation

Hi there, I'm taking on the challenge of 131km in May and raising funds for Stroke Foundation to help create a future with fewer strokes. This is a very personal cause for me, as I nearly lost my amazing mother to 2 strokes in 2022.

Every day in Australia, 131 people will have a stroke. 

Stroke is one of Australia's biggest killers and doesn't discriminate; it affects anyone, anytime. It claims more lives than breast cancer in women and prostate cancer in men. And incredibly, up to 120 babies and 400 children have a stroke in Australia each year.

By supporting my challenge, you’ll be helping Stroke Foundation deliver life-changing programs that focus on:

  • Preventing stroke through education, awareness, and encouraging blood pressure checks

  • Saving lives by improving recognition and response — including awareness of the F.A.S.T. (Face, Arms, Speech, Time) signs of stroke — and strengthening stroke care

  • Supporting recovery with trusted information, StrokeLine, and online communities for survivors and families

Your donation is more than a contribution — it helps people understand their risk, act faster in an emergency, and find support on the road to recovery. 

Thank you so much for supporting me and being part of this challenge.

Together, we can help create a future with fewer strokes.

Why your donations matter

Thursday 23rd Apr
This May I’m walking 131km for the Stroke Foundation, a cause that means a lot to me after my mum suffered two strokes in 2022. Her first stroke was severe after a neck surgery and it landed her in the ICU, and while we were still processing that, a second silent stroke was only discovered later through follow-up imaging just before she was discharged. It was a frightening time but I’m incredibly grateful that I was able to recognise the signs early and bring it to the medical staff's attention, even when the signs weren’t obvious - all thanks to the Stroke Foundation’s resources. Today, my mum has made an amazing recovery and is back to herself, with only some mild memory-related symptoms. This challenge is my way of giving back and helping others have access to the same support that made such a difference for us.

Thank you to my Sponsors
