George Town Stroke Strider’s

Our team is taking on the challenge of Stride4Stroke and raising funds for Stroke Foundation!

Hi there,

We’re taking on Stride4Stroke this September as a team and raising funds for Stroke Foundation to help create a future with fewer strokes.

At 42 years of age, I (Janet) had a Stroke. I could no longer read, write or talk. My right arm became paralysed and my right leg needed to have a AFO (ankle foot orthotic). From being a full time teacher I became a disability pensioner. 

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

This year, every $11 raised represents one stroke expected in Australia. As a team, we’re aiming to make a real impact — and we’d love your support.

Your donation will help fund vital programs and services that:

• Prevent stroke through education and awareness
• Support people and families when stroke happens
• Help survivors recover and rebuild their lives

Every dollar brings us closer to our goal and helps change lives.

Thank you for supporting our team — together, we can help change the story of stroke.
