Centre for Neuro Skills CFO to Lead 2025 Kern County Heart and Stroke Walk

Lindsay Ashley, chief financial officer of Centre for Neuro Skills, will lead the 2025 Kern County Heart and Stroke Walk, an annual event designed to unite the community in the fight against heart disease and stroke. Scheduled for Saturday, October 11, at California State University, Bakersfield, the walk aims to raise critical funds and awareness for the American Heart Association's lifesaving mission.

Ashley will spearhead a diverse team of Kern County executives committed to recruiting local companies and organizations to participate in the event. The leadership team represents a cross-section of regional businesses, including healthcare providers, media, and professional services. By leveraging their collective influence, the team hopes to generate substantial support for cardiovascular health initiatives.

The Heart and Stroke Walk serves multiple critical purposes beyond fundraising. It provides a platform for celebrating survivors, educating the community about preventative health strategies, and highlighting the importance of lifestyle choices in managing cardiovascular risk. Heart disease and stroke remain significant public health challenges, with potential impacts on physical and mental well-being.

The American Heart Association's local efforts in Kern County have already made significant strides, including expanding CPR training, connecting patients with advanced treatments, and providing resources for managing high blood pressure. Ashley's leadership is expected to further amplify these important community health initiatives.

By bringing together local business leaders and community members, the Heart and Stroke Walk represents a collaborative approach to addressing critical health challenges. Participants will gain access to valuable resources and tools designed to support holistic well-being, emphasizing that prevention and proactive health management are key to reducing cardiovascular risks.

Centre for Neuro Skills' involvement extends beyond the local event, with the organization participating in Heart Walk events across California and Texas. The organization's commitment to community health is further underscored by Dr. Matt Ashley's leadership role on the Central Texas American Heart Association's Board of Directors.

As chair of the 2025 Kern County Heart and Stroke Walk, Lindsay Ashley will play a pivotal role in mobilizing community resources, raising awareness, and supporting the American Heart Association's mission to create healthier lives for all.
