In July 2017 my dad was rushed to hospital to find that he was faced with a life threatening Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA), which neither I or my family knew anything about. He then spent 30 days in ICU, which tragically resulted in his death. I would like to raise awareness of this and to ensure everyone attends their screening, which is part of the national screening program at 65 years old, this could help prevent the same devastating outcome.

September  is Vascular Awareness Month and the Circulation Foundation are running #TheBodyWalk as a national campaign to raise awareness of vascular disease and imperative funding.By increasing awareness and raising funds, the Circulation Foundation are able to continue supporting patients to live their best lives whilst having to cope with serious circulatory diseases. Although these diseases affect 40% of the population, they are not well known by most people.I am joining the challenge to collectively walk the 60,000 miles of the Aerial Tree.
