I'm fundraising to prevent, treat and beat stroke!
Northern Health's Early Stroke Discharge Service is raising funds and awareness for Stroke Foundation to help prevent, treat and beat stroke.
Stroke attacks the brain, the human control centre, changing lives in an instant. It can happen to anyone, at any age and affects everyone differently.
Few people will think about stroke until it touches their life.
It’s estimated more than 27,400 people will have a stroke in Australia for the first time in 2022, equating to one stroke every nineteen minutes.
Today, there are over 445,000 people in our community whose lives have been changed by stroke and their number is growing.
Stroke Foundation is a national charity that partners with the community to prevent stroke, save lives and enhance recovery.
With your support, Stroke Foundation can provide support to those affected right now and fund research to fight stroke.
For the month of August our team is aiming to complete 30 minutes of moderate intensity exercise on most (preferably all) days of the week - which is the current recommendation from the Stroke Foundation for reducing stroke risk.
