I’m taking part in Stride4Stroke to help prevent, treat and beat stroke!
Stroke is one of Australia’s biggest killers and a leading cause of disability.
In Australia currently, 12% of people say they won’t have exercised this week. One million strokes a year globally are linked to physical inactivity. One of the things we can do to reduce our risk of stroke, or secondary stroke, is to keep active.
So this November I’m taking part in Stride4Stroke to raise vital funds and awareness for Stroke Foundation.
Stroke Foundation is committed to raising community awareness about stroke and stroke prevention, advocating for increased access to specialised stroke treatment and rehabilitation care, and supporting research into innovative treatments for the benefit of all Australians.
Please join me in my fight against stroke today by donating and helping share my story.
Thank you in advance.
So far I have helped Stroke Foundation deliver…
Advice and support from a health professional on StrokeLine
Stroke recovery packs to 3 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

Ian, you are old enough to remember cracker night, I'm sure. I used to sometimes think of my opponents sitting on the front bench as crackers, with Hewson the skyrocket. And Howard, always with such promise. He always reminded me of that thing called the flower pot. Now, I don't know if you remember the flower pot, but that was the one which always promised a dazzling performance. You'd light it up, and it had multicolours, and it did a show for you but, often, when you lit it up it went fffftt, you know, a bit of a spark... there was always a bit of a show, and then there'd be a bit more, and a bit more, then, finally, it fell away to nothing. Then there's [Ian] McLachlan, our establishment friend, who was supposed to have come to Canberra with a big bang. I always think of him as the bunger, you know, the big red bungers... the strong, silent type capable of a big bang. You light it up, everyone stands back, and then the wick goes down... and everyone's waiting... and they keep on waiting... and that's it, it doesn't go off. And then there's Bronwyn [Bishop]. She reminds me of the Catherine wheel. We used to nail them to the fence and they'd take off, spreadeagle the kids, burn the dog, run up a tree and then fizzle out going round in circles. So, that was our friends in the Opposition. Bitter, burnt out and accident prone."
