I live with cardiomyopathy, a heart condition, and with an ICD. I know first hand just how vital the research of the British Heart Foundation is.

So I am helping to keep hearts beating this Heart Month by taking on the Walk for Hearts challenge throughout February to help fund lifesaving research. Every three minutes, someone in the UK dies from cardiovascular disease. With your support, British Heart Foundation can power research that will enable people to live longer, healthier lives.

My aim is over the course of February to walk 100 miles in aid of the British Heart Foundation. Some of the family will be joining me (mum aiming for 28 miles for example - but just having this one JustGiving page) and others, friends, joining me as and when. Will keep all updated with everyones progress. Help me to help the British Heart Foundation to improve lives of those living with heart conditions.
