Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In May 2007 I received a call while at work from my sister in tears, barely understanding what she was saying she the mumbled words  that would completely shake me to my core 'Dad has had a heart attack'

My Dad was very lucky, we all are, as he was able to make a full recovery after undergoing a Triple Bypass with many thanks to the surgeons, doctors and nurses. Discussions with specialist identified that Heart Disease played a part and it helped as be aware of the disease that also affected my Nan. 

Since then The British Heart Foundation has been our go to charity as we look to support them in their research however we can and for many years I have been thinking about doing something big and outside of my comfort zone and I have now taken the plunge....I will trek to Machu Picchu in October! 

The trip it self is self-funded by myself so ALL money I raise through just giving is going directly to The British Heart Foundation to help with their invaluable research.
