Firstly, thank you so much for visiting my page! I'm raising money for the British Heart Foundation's research and I'd be so grateful for your support. 

I'm running the marathon (something I thought I would never do!) because in April 2018, I lost my Uncle Andrew to sudden cardiac arrest at the age of 44. In spite of the excellent work and dedication of the medical staff and the people around at the time of his heart attack, he was unable to pull through. My family and I miss him every day and are determined to prevent such a thing happening to another young family. 

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 still 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.
