Story

Thanks for visiting my page. I'm raising money for the British Heart Foundation and I'd be so grateful for your support. 

The BHF has helped halve the number of people dying from heart and circulatory disease in the UK but sadly every day hundreds of people lose their lives. It's only thanks to support from people like us that the BHF can create new treatments and discover new cures. 

2024 will mark a decade since we lost Stephen. He was a beloved friend, son, teacher and much more. He lived One Amazing Life, which has been the slogan of a charity set up in his name which works closely with the BHF. Our first fundraising effort in the form of a football tournament was for the BHF, so this feels full circle to complete a mammoth task life the London Marathon for the charity.

If I could sit down with Stephen now and have a catch up over a cold pint of Guinness, believe me, I would! Two pints of Guiness now average £10, this could also fund vital research towards heart and circulatory disease in the UK. So please, if I could ask for anything, please get a round in for Hughsie! 

Thank you for visiting the page, please share and spread the message, to celebrate the amazing life of Stephen, whilst helping people in the UK live longer and healthier.
