Please show your support?

My name is shaun I am a care assistant in lincolnshire. I am asking people to show their support and sponsor me for my first ever marathon and to help raise cash for the Stroke Association.

I am running the Flora London Marathon in April and I hope to raise £2,000 in memory of my granddad who suffered a fatal stroke.

Strokes are the third most common cause of death in the UK. Each year, around 150,000 people in the UK have a stroke. Most affected are over 65, but anyone can have a stroke, including children and even babies.

The cash raised will go towards research into the causes and effects of strokes and how they can be prevented and treated.

Thankyou for your time.
