Stride 4 Stroke : How it works

How it Works

Taking part in Stride4Stroke

Stride4Stroke is a community fitness and fundraising challenge held in September.

We’re asking you to get moving your way and help us raise $500,000 — $11 for every stroke expected in Australia this year.

Take part however you like — walk, run, swim, cycle, dance, stretch, or take part in stroke recovery — and together we’ll help fund stroke prevention, support services, and recovery resources.

Almost 47,000 Australians will have a stroke this year. That’s one every 11 minutes.

Together, we can create a future with fewer strokes.
