A PLYMOUTH doctor who had a severe stroke at 30 is backing a charity’s campaign to raise awareness that stroke can happen to anyone at any age.
Jimmy Hubbard’s stroke left him with a range of physical and emotional difficulties which ended his promising career as a hospital anaesthetist.
As he works to “get his life back”, Jimmy is sharing his story, as research by the Stroke Association to mark World Stroke Day on Sunday reveals that more than half of UK adults think strokes don’t affect young people – yet one in four happens someone of working age.
His stroke happened almost four years ago when he was working in Yeovil, having just returned from living in Australia.
