Story

We are undertaking this challenge of walking 100km from Glasgow to Edinburgh as many people close to us suffer heart problems which affect them in their day to day lives, including both our dad's. We'd love to give something back to the British Heart Foundation, hence this challenge...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 us hit our target. Thank you X
