I’m taking on the challenge of Run4Stroke and raising funds for Stroke Foundation!
Hi there, I'm taking on the challenge of Run4Stroke and raising funds for Stroke Foundation to help create a future with fewer strokes.
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 me, you'll be helping to sustain vital programs and resources that Stroke Foundation provides in stroke prevention, recovery and knowledge.
I am also doing this in memory of my mother Christine and my brother Sunil, both of whom I lost to stroke.
Thank you for supporting me and our team. Together we can change the story of stroke.
My Updates
I lost half my family of origin to stroke
Wednesday 19th Nov And I’ve witnessed its debilitating and sometimes heartbreaking impact on my family and my friends and family of my friends, and friends of my family who have been blessed enough to survive. It also has impacts on all those who lovingly care for and support survivors of stroke. We need to do better, we can do better. We need better prevention strategies, better access to life-saving therapies, better rehabilitation and recovery for survivors, better resources to support carers, and more research and translation of that research into policy, practice and public health campaigns. All this requires resources. Please join me in making a difference and supporting the work of the Stroke Foundation. My team will collectively be striding 7kms each this Saturday, collectively doing a marathon, in memory of those we love. ShareThank you to my Sponsors
