Story

Thanks for visiting my page. I'm raising money for the British Heart Foundation's research and I'd be so grateful for your support.

My dad died suddenly from a Heart Attack recently. This was unexpected and I’m running in his memory. I can’t describe the loss that I’m feeling and I am determined to run this marathon for my dad. My dad had the biggest heart full of love and those who met him said the same. 

 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!
