This April, we will be running the London Marathon and aiming to raise £10,000 as part of a team for the British Heart Foundation.

Heart and circulatory diseases are the world’s biggest killers and will affect most of us, through someone we know or personally, during our lifetimes - that’s why the British Heart Foundation exists. By funding research, they can help find treatments and cures that could save lives, and with your donations and the awe-inspiring science they fund, they make science fiction a reality.

The right help and support is vital; British Heart Foundation’s range of services gives people the chance to lead a fun and active life, while gaining independence and growing in confidence.

We are happy to be running for such an important cause – it is incredibly important that people across the UK have access to such crucial support when they need it most. none of us are natural athletes – and this gets harder every year – but I hope that with your help we can make a real difference.
