I'm helping to keep hearts beating this Heart Month by taking on the Walk for Hearts challenge throughout February to help fund lifesaving research.

Every three minutes, someone in the UK dies from cardiovascular disease. With your support, British Heart Foundation can power research that will enable people to live longer, healthier lives.

I had a heart attack last year. I feel lucky to be alive. I'm not very active and need motivation to exercise. BHF have been a great source of advice, and Walking for Hearts is something I can do to bring awareness to their work while getting more active.
