STYLE FOR STROKE

​

Nicks life changed when his beloved mother Eleanor died of a stroke on the 31st of August 1997 – a significant date that would be remembered by many people across the world as the day that Diana Princess of Wales was killed. Nick and his family suffered from their own loss, that of the family matriarch and family glue that kept them all together. After suffering a nervous breakdown and spending nearly a year off work to deal with his bereavement Nick felt the frustration of not knowing what a stroke was. He contacted the Stroke Association, the national charity for stroke in the UK and asked to meet them and to see if he could help in any way. After meeting with the charity and learning more about stroke, Nick decided to dedicate his spare time to raising awareness for stroke amongst the younger generation who invariably thought of stoke as something that only affected old people.

​

Since 1998 Nick has spent countless hours of his time devoting his energy to making a difference. Because he isn’t particularity sporty Nick decided to put on a party to raise awareness for stroke. Thus followed 20 years of A Night With Nick , a star- studded party held in London that benefited the Stroke Association. Nick canvassed celebrities and influential people to attend his events to get the word out that stroke affects everyone and there is no cure. Since 1998 Nick has had support for his work from many household names including Kelly Osbourne, Zoella, Victoria Beckham OBE , Jamie Oliver, Jonathan Shalit OBE, Andrea McLean, Denise Van Outen, Naomi Harris OBE, Konnie Huq, Vogue Williams, Dame Arlene Phillips, Patsy Palmer, Kelly Rowland, Lorraine Kelly MBE and respected brands including Swarovski, Scamp & Dude and The Perfume Shop.

His latest campaigns have seen Nick collaborate with Fund Jumpers and Scamp & Dude to create sustainable jumpers with talent including Emilia Clarke, Laura Whitmore, Joanne Froggatt, Nicola Roberts, Naomie Harris and Nicole Scherzinger all supporting the campaign.
