Chris was the kind of person who gave everything to the people around him. He had a huge heart — the sort that made people feel welcome, supported, and never alone. Sadly, it was also the thing that let him down.

I’m running this 10K in memory of my best friend and raising money for the British Heart Foundation to help fund lifesaving research and support for others affected by heart disease.

Every donation, no matter how small, means the world.

This run is for Chris, as well as my sister-in-law Gem, who had a heart transplant, which proves that the work BHF do continues to make a difference.
