🎂 It’s our 5th Birthday 🎂

As Stroke Awareness Month begins, we celebrate 5 years of A Stroke of Luck.

We haven’t been as active on social over the past few months and that’s been primarily down to our Founder’s ill health. But, we have been busy working behind the scenes to make sure this next year is a really exciting one.

As it’s Stroke Awareness Month, it’s important we focus our attention on all the amazing survivors out there and their wonderful A-Teams who help support their journey through life.

So, please tell us who you’re grateful for in the comments, and if you’re able, please donate £5 for our 5th Birthday using the link below:

A Stroke of Luck is extremely grateful to Lockton Charitable Association for their incredibly kind support of us by way of a very generous donation. An employee of the Lockton group of companies is a Stroke Survivor and has engaged with our services and has become an important part of our A-Team. Nominating A Stroke of Luck as a recipient of a donation means an lot to us as a young charity.

We continue to build digital content for stroke survivors to engage with to support their ongoing recovery journey, and without the support of organisations like Lockton Charitable Association, it would be much more difficult. Thank you.

🎈 Happy Birthday to our Founder, Craig.

The A Stroke of Luck A-Team wish you the best of days.

🎙FRIDAY LIVE SESSIONS!

Date: Friday 3 February 2023
Time: 18:30 GMT
Location: Instagram

Joining Craig on this week's Live is Goergie Hennah, a stroke survivor and a lady full of energy. You're going to love listening to her!

To whet your appetite, here is the a description of Georgie's stroke:

"Back in May 2020 I suffered a rare haemorrhagic stroke, due to ruptured AVM (a cluster of tangled blood vessels which burst), that left me paralysed down the left side of my body. Having had no symptoms prior to this, as well as living a healthy and active lifestyle, this came as a huge shock to everyone and was a strong reminder that you never know what is around the corner. 14 weeks, 3 hospitals and 1 brain surgery later, I finally returned home after following an intense neuro-rehabilitation programme where I had to relearn how to walk and use my left arm again."

Georgie's full story will be published after the Live. Make sure you tune in to find out more!

Time: 18:30GMT

Joining Craig on this week’s Live is Clodagh Conway, Sister of the incredible Stroke Survivor: Ruth Carroll.

Clodagh has been a significant part of Ruth’s A-Team and will chat to us about how what it’s like to have your Sister experience stroke at such a young age. This will be a fascinating discussion from the perspective of an A-Team member.

Ruth went live with Craig back in February 2021 - link below if you’d like to listen to Ruth’s story. It’s incredible.

What are you planning in 2023 to make a difference?

Three friends have decided to take on the IRONMAN relay challenge in 2023! Are they mad?

Craig (our Founder), Ross, and Charles are taking on IRONMAN 70.3 in Nice to raise awareness of stroke and to support the work A Stroke of Luck does in giving access to exercise and activity for stroke survivors to aid their recovery journeys.

The chaps head off to France in June to Swim (Craig), Cycle (Ross), and Run Charles). Between now and then, Craig is getting back in the water to see if he can remember how to swim, Ross has taken off his stabilisers, and Charles has a new pair of go-faster trainers.

There will be regular progress updates. Please stay tuned!

If you would like to support the team, please drop a message of encouragement and if you can spare a few pounds, please do donate here 👇
