Story
Thanks for visiting my page. I'm raising money for the British Heart Foundation and I'd be so grateful for your support. My dad died of a heart attack at the age of 47, when I was just 16. He is one of the reasons I took up running to stay fit. Last year I was particularly unwell and coming back to running has been hard. This half gives me a chance to challenge myself and raise money for a good cause.
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. £24 could pay for two hours of research by an early career scientist, but every pound helps so please give what you can to help me hit my target. Thanks!
