We fund lifesaving research to to tackle heart and circulatory diseases

Story

I have several reasons for wanting to raise money for the British Heart Foundation, so they can continue their research. The first is that at the age of 86 years of age my mum was suffering with severe angina but with an operation that gave her two stents in her heart she is now able to live a full life to enjoy her grand and great grandchildren.
The second is because of the treatment that has been given to my little nephew who was diagnosed with a heart problem at birth, since then he has received the best possible treatment.

The final reason is because of a young man I sit next to when playing in a brass band, in 2016 he had to have a pace maker fitted to help with heart problems, a few weeks later he was stood in front of the band and played a solo to 200 people. 

If you’re looking for inspiration, all three show how the British Heart Foundation changes people’s lives whatever their age.
