Coast to Coast across Scotland for Stroke Survivors
My Donations to date: £4193.5
Fundraiser(s): Dr Alex Doney
Event: Coast to Coast across Scotland for Stroke Survivors
Event Date: 10th September 2011
Charitie(s) Supported: The Acute Stroke Unit,
Stroke is the greatest cause of long term disability in Scotland and the second greatest cause of death. I work with stroke patients every day at the Acute Stroke Unit in Ninewells Hospital in Dundee and see on a first hand basis the devastating impact a stroke can have. I also see the enormous potential for recovery that can be achieved through dedicated support from a multi-professional team guiding a survivor back into a full and rewarding life after a stroke.
I have chosen to spend the week that I turn 50 running the 128 miles from Oban to St Andrews along Brian Smailes' Scottish Coast to Coast Walk (http://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/uswalks/coasttocoast/index.html) to raise both awareness and funds for improving the environment for recovery for patients with Stroke in Ninewells Hospital.
Please sponsor me.
