Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The groundbreaking research BHF funded before July 2010 helped to save my daddys life. As, I am sure you can imagine, this means a great deal to me. In return i'm supporting their efforts to keep hearts beating by walking 13miles from Leeds towards Skipton on 20th May 2012 (that's the same as 2 10Ks! or half a marathon).

I'm taking up the challenge with family and friends. Your support is keeping us all fit!

So a massive Thank you goes out to you for joining us in making a life-saving donation to the BHF (and keeping us fit!).

Did you know...?

* "People who exercise are 30% less likely to have a heart attack than those who do not exercise."

** "In the 1970s BHF research proved that heart attacks occur when blood clots block the coronary arteries. From this came clot-busting drugs."

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please show your support by digging deep and donating now.

P.N.B this page is set up In Memory of Grandpa Benny Berkovitz - d.1956 of medical problems including the heart, BHF was founded in 1961!

May our hearts continue to beat along together,

Thank you

The Team

Sophie, Therese, Natasha, Michelle, Susanne & Tim.
