Story

Myself (Alex) and my brother (Adam) are running 2.6km everyday for 30 days to raise money in memory of our great gramps.  We are raising money for AAA, abdominal aortic aneurysm. He sadly passed away due to complications after having abdominal aneurysm surgery on the 22nd May 2020. He was our idol and hero, he showed us so much love and I want to give something back to thank him for the love and support over the years. He was a grandfather that we admire, respect and have huge amounts of love for, he was the rock in our family, he kept everyone together and supported us all.  Please donate as much as you can as I can’t personally put into words what a great gramps he was. We love you paps and I hope me and Adam make you proud for doing this. Love and miss you always, Alex and Adam xxxxxx
