Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Emerald's Executive Chairman, Martin Fojt, was always a fit and healthy man and regularly exercised on Ilkley Moor before work. One morning in early 2014 he died from a sudden heart attack whilst he was walking his dog on the Moor. This year, Emerald Group  celebrates its 50th anniversary and the charity committee have decided to try and raise £50,000 for Heart Research UK.

The money raised this year will be going directly to a specific research project which is taking place in the UK. The project will be looking at developing a novel ECG-based test to measure the risk of sudden cardiac death, which is responsible for over 3 million deaths per year, worldwide. In order to raise the grand total of £50,000 a number of Emerald colleagues are walking the Yorkshire 3 Peaks. Please do support me in this challenge.
