London Landmarks Half Marathon 2027 · 4 April 2027 · Start fundraising for this event

Far too many of us have felt the pain of losing someone we love. With your donations, we power groundbreaking cardiovascular research to save and improve lives, bring hope to families, and keep hearts beating across the UK.

Story

Josh and I are running multiple marathon events in 2026 & 2027 in loving memory of my dad, affectionately known as Old Boy Grandad. We miss him every single day. He was taken from us due to a heart condition, and we want to honor his memory by supporting the British Heart Foundation.

Heart conditions affect so many families, and it’s heartbreaking to see loved ones lost too soon. The British Heart Foundation works tirelessly to prevent others from experiencing this pain by funding vital research and providing support for those affected. We believe that through their work, fewer families will have to endure the same loss we have.

We kindly ask for your support in helping us reach our fundraising target of £350. Every donation brings us closer to making a difference and saving lives. Please join us in this cause by contributing what you can—together, we can help prevent more heartbreak and create hope for the future.
