I am raising money for the British Heart Foundation because, over the last six months I have lost two really important people in my life to Coronary Heart Disease.

In September 2016 my uncle Francis passed away suddenly at the age of 46, from a heart attack as a result of this condition. He was a massive part of my family and always enjoyed life to the full. This sad news shook the foundations of our family.

Six months later In March 2017, my hero, my wonderful Dad Ben passed away at the age of 45, from the same condition. He was always there for me when I needed him and I miss him so much. 

Two brothers taken away from their families far too soon. I think that more awareness should be raised of this condition to help save other people from the heart ache my family and I are suffering.

As I can't run to save my life, my mum Abi and her friend Sammy are running a half marathon for this worthwhile cause. Doing this is important for my mum as both of these amazing men were such an influential part her life for the last 27 years.
