11,000 steps a day, everyday in September. Stepping up for those who can’t.
Hi all, I'm taking on the challenge of Stride4Stroke and raising funds for Stroke Foundation to help create a future with fewer strokes.
In the next 11 minutes, someone, somewhere in Australia is going to have a stroke. Unfortunatly last year on the 20th of June 2024, this statistic hit my dad. With a 5 week fight before he couldn’t fight anymore.
I am asking anyone who knew of him, was touched by his beauty, know of someone who has suffered a stroke, or to simply raise a conversation to donate $11 in acknowledgement, support, solidarity and hope that the 1 person affected each 11 minutes in Australia can see a decrease in affected and increase in knowledge & care.
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, including:
Preventing Stroke:
- StrokeSafe Talks
- Australia's Biggest Blood Pressure Check
- Information Resources
Saving Lives:
- F.A.S.T. (Face, Arms, Speech, Time) Signs of Stroke Awareness
- Living Guidelines for Stroke Management
- InformMe Website for Health Professionals
Enhancing Recovery:
- StrokeLine
- My Stroke Journey
- EnableMe Website for Survivors of Stroke
Your support goes beyond just a donation; it's a lifeline for individuals at risk of stroke and survivors of stroke.
Thank you for supporting me. Together we can change the story of stroke.
My Updates
Day 3
3 days in, 50k+ steps down, feeling hopeful to see growth and bring awareness!
The fire behind the journey.
Here’s to stepping up to the fight, honouring my dad, those who have passed before their time, the warriors who have beaten it & all those affected directly or through loved ones experiences.
Throughout STEPtember I vow to take 11,000 steps a day, an 11km walk weekly & raise awareness for this disease who took one of the most important people in my life far too early and quickly!
So far I have helped Stroke Foundation deliver…
Initial advice and support from a health professional on StrokeLine
A stroke recovery pack to three survivors of stroke
Training to a StrokeSafe volunteer to deliver community talks.
Funding to stroke researchers to find the next game-changer in stroke.
Thank you to my Sponsors
