I’m taking on the challenge of Stride4Stroke and raising funds for Stroke Foundation!

Hi there, 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.

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.

Why Stride4Stroke is so important to me.


Thank you for taking the time to read this. I am taking the challenge of Stride4Stroke and raising funds for Stroke Foundation.
EVERY 11 MINUTES SOMEONE IN AUSTRALIA HAS A STROKE!
So in the time it has taken me to write this post, 2 people have had strokes!! Those 2 people are the husbands, wife’s, mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters or another loved one who has had their world and those of their relatives turned upside down, just as I did with my close relative.
For many the word Stroke will bring fear into your heart. It can be such a debilitating and disabling medical emergency that can definitely lead to major life changes, if not be deadly. This is more close to my heart than any medical condition for three real reasons;
Firstly, I have a close relative who suffered a stroke last year. Upon hearing of their diagnosis, I was mortified, wondering how they were affected and what the future outlook was for them.  Fortunately they have had a very good response to treatment and is now nearly back to the same person they were.
Secondly, I personally have a medical condition that sees me being in a high bracket for susceptibility for a stroke. That is a really scary thing to hear and with me not getting any younger, this fundraiser has come along at just the right time. Stride4Stroke requires participants to walk, run, swim, push or one of a wide range of activities which I have once again committed to doing for the second year. Last November I took on the Stride4Stroke challenge. This has had an enormous positive change in my health. While I am a wheelchair user most of the time, I can walk on crutches with a special shoe and since the start of November last year, I have recorded over 320 kilometres of crutch walking. I have also lost a total of 24 kilograms. 
Thirdly, my father suffered several stokes after a minor medical procedure and passed away 30 years ago. I still miss him ... 
With fundraisers such as this I know I want to know what my donation is used for.  The Stroke Foundation provides support in Preventing Stroke, Saving Lives and Enhancing Recovery. Further details are readily available on my page:
https://www.stride4stroke.org.au/fundraisers/billfuller/stride4stroke
And while you’re there, if you could manage a small donation it would really help me to reach my target of $1,000 or even go beyond it. I self donated $100 to kick start my fundraising and currently have raised $548
Even if you cannot afford to or do not wish to donate, please be aware of what the Stroke Foundation does and how it may be able to help you to learn more about Stroke and maybe even save a life.
Thank you, Bill Fuller

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
