Tower of London Run 2018 · 2 May 2018 ·

Far too many of us have felt the pain of losing someone we love. With your donations, we power groundbreaking cardiovascular research to save and improve lives, bring hope to families, and keep hearts beating across the UK.

Story

On the 4th of September 2017, we sadly lost our Nan/Mum due to a sudden, major heart attack. 

Lizzie was in good health, she had been to the doctors as she was about to go on holiday, there were no signs that suggested a heart attack was expected. We are still unsure what caused such a heavy heart attack so randomly. 

Lizzie was a nurse working for the NHS and had always donated and taken part in raising money for various charities. Especially ones that affected/supported friends and family members. 

So in her memory, we would like to raise money to help support the British Heart Foundation. 

We are taking part in the 10k run at the Tower of London. As a family, we have spent many days together in London, so it feels a fitting venue to be raising money in memory of our beloved Mum and Nan.

Lizzie will also enjoy watching us do it, as she knows we are not runners! So we hope this makes her smile. 

We're not the first family to be affected by heart diseases, and unfortunately, we won't be the last. But hopefully, we can help make a difference and support the BHF to help prevent premature deaths and suffering amongst other people. 

Lizzie was a wonderful, caring and selfless woman who touched the hearts of everyone she met. We truly appreciate any amount you can donate in her memory to help fund cardiovascular research in the UK.
