UPDATE……UPDATE……..UPDATE………

Thanks so much to all who have so generously given  I am now fifty!! Quite a big milestone, we celebrated hard this weekend  I am so thrilled with the amount that I have raised for Pumping Marvelous   It has been great walking so far with so many lovely people who came to help me.  Thank you all  xxx

Last year I was diagnosed with Heart failure. We think it has been caused by one of the chemotherapy drugs I had for breast cancer. Now things are improving I decided to set myself a challenge before I reach the grand age of 50 at the end of June   I will be walking 500 miles, just like the Proclaimers!!

I am under the care of the most amazing consultant and the wonderful heart failure nursing team at Addenbrookes    Pumping Marvellous charity provide care to medical staff and patients  

The core activities and strategy of the Pumping Marvellous Foundation are driven by the needs of heart failure patients, carers and family communities we serve. We get to the real crux of the problems, the problems that patients tell us they have. Our communities are large and we have superb interactions with them, we run the largest Facebook page dedicated to Heart Failure globally so we fully understand the needs and challenges they face. We develop and distribute patient information to the vast majority of NHS Heart Failure Teams in the UK.
