Amanda’s marathon mission! 🏅
We’re so proud of Amanda, who’s training hard for the TCS London Marathon 2025 to support the incredible work of the Stroke Association.
Amanda’s inspiration?
“As some of you may know, back in 2019 my mum had a stroke, she was one of the lucky ones who has since made a full recovery, however, there are so many people who take much longer to recover, and some who sadly never fully recover. A stroke can happen to any of us at any time with no warning signs. We as a family are so grateful for the care my mum received,
I’m hoping that I have inherited even a small part of my mum's strength and resilience to help me through my training & then to get me across the finish line.”
There are over 1.3 million stroke survivors in the UK, with 100,000 strokes happening in the UK each year. That's one stroke every five minutes.
Amanda is taking on this challenge to give back to the organisation that supports so many stroke survivors and their families.
Her determination and heart are an inspiration to us all! 💜
