Sydney Marathon 2025 · 31 August 2025 ·

Every 5 minutes, someone dies from heart diseases in the UK. We need to tackle this problem head on, and we need to start today. Your donations will fund lifesaving medical research to find new treatments and cures. We need your help, until there are no more deaths from heart diseases.

Story

In Memory of our dad, Gerard

On Halloween 2023, our dad suffered a heart attack and cardiac arrest at just 60 years old. Brindley courageously performed CPR until paramedics arrived. Despite overnight surgery and two weeks on life support, our dad sadly never regained consciousness.

Gerard was a kind, positive, and thoughtful man who always put others before himself. He was an inspirational father and devoted husband, desperately missed by all who knew and loved him.

To honour his memory, we are running to raise money for Heart Research UK in two places that were close to his heart.

Jonathan is taking on a Spartan Beast (21km with obstacles) in Zandvoort, Netherlands, on 24 May 2025, and Brindley is running the Sydney Marathon on 31 August 2025.

Please help us reach our £2000 goal. Every donation funds vital research into the prevention, treatment, and cure of heart disease, helping to save other families from experiencing our loss.

Thank you for your support.

Jonathan and Brindley
