Story

Thanks for visiting my page. I'm raising money for the British Heart Foundation and I'd be so grateful for your support. I am running in memory of my dad Richard Collis and my father in law Charlie Maskall who both sadly lost their lives to heart attacks in 2018 and 2026 respectively. 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!
