We would like to share with our members a message received from the Stroke Association, thanking the CTSA and all those who helped to raise money for the charity at the Festival of Football this year. Please see below…

Please send our thanks on to all of those involved, we are so grateful for the time you put into this event every year. To give you an example of where this money could be used, it costs £1,685 to train a fitness coach to provide specific exercise rehabilitation to stroke survivors – this not only gives our members motivation but empowers them with the confidence and techniques to begin and continue exercising. As you can imagine, this can be life changing for some stroke survivors, your £1,040 would cover over half of this!
