Story



This year will be the 12th anniversary of my dad's passing. I believe it's now my time to honour such a wonderful man who I lost at the age of 12 through a sudden heart attack. It has always been on my bucket list to run a marathon, let alone running two within two weeks! The British Heart Foundation do fantastic work, much needed research and I want to support their work in memory of my dad. With the funding for valuable future research I would like to hope that no more young children like myself will suffer the devastating sudden loss of a loved one. 

Thanks for visiting my page. I would be very grateful for your support. 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. Every donation big or small helps massively so please give what you can to help me hit my target. 

Thank you so much.
