The Who Wants To Be A Millionaire host is encouraging residents across Scotland to nominate a worthy Life After Stroke Awards winner.

He said: “Having a stroke was one of the most terrifying experiences of my life – but I’m one of the lucky ones.

“The Stroke Association’s Life After Stroke Awards are an incredible opportunity to celebrate the achievements of extraordinary people who are determined to conquer stroke.

“I was lucky enough to host the Life After Stroke Awards last year, and it really is one of the most inspirational event’s I’ve attended. So why not make a nomination, and give a stroke survivor, volunteer, professional, or carer a chance to shine.”
