Huge congratulations to our very own Squadron Leader Masters who completed the gruelling London Landmarks Half Marathon on Sunday 6th April, in aid of Different Strokes Charity.
Different Strokes helps younger stroke survivors and their families to achieve an active recovery throughout their lives.
Squadron Leader Masters said:
“After suffering a major stroke in 1997, and a more minor stroke in 2021, I relied heavily on Different Strokes for sharing information and experiences of strokes. One thing I realised is that I am very lucky to be able to run, even at the age of 58; many stroke survivors can’t therefore I’m also running for them.”
Different Strokes have personal experience of life after stroke. Most of their staff, volunteers and trustees are stroke survivors, family members, or have a close personal connection to stroke. Different Strokes recognise that younger stroke survivors and family members are the experts in stroke recovery and rehabilitation; consulting with them regularly to make sure that Different Strokes services are relevant and personalised.
