Story

Thanks for visiting my page. I'm raising money for the British Heart Foundation, and will be running a half marathon on the 26th of May. I'd be so grateful for your support.

As many of you will know, we lost our wonderful daddy, Rollo, on the 27th of March this year. He suffered with Cardimyopathay and Artial Fibrillation. He had just turned 70 and luckily met two new grandchildren, Clementina, and Arthur, who arrived on his birthday.

We miss him terribly and can't halp but feel that we lost him too soon. He was looked after by the Porlock and Dunster Surgeries, as well as the cardiac unit at Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton. He was always so impressed and grateful for the care and attention he recieved.

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!
