When a stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. That's because a stroke happens in the brain, the control centre for who we are and what we can do. It happens every five minutes in the UK and changes lives instantly.

Recovery is tough, but with the right specialist support and a ton of courage and determination, the brain can adapt. Our specialist support, research and campaigning are only possible with the courage and determination of the stroke community. With more donations and support from you, we can rebuild even more lives.

Walking is a great way to help improve your overall health, not just for your physical health, but also your mental health. It can also contribute to reducing your risk of having a stroke.

Some of walking's benefits are:

Lower blood pressure.

Helping to lose weight if you need to, and maintain a healthy weight.

Improve self-esteem.
