Story

Than you for stopping by.

I am running the GNR for the BHF this year in honour of my dad, Kevin Coates, who died of a heart attack in 2021. It was a painful time for everyone and unfortunately, it's an all too common occurrence.  I'm hoping that the money I raise can be put to a good cause to raise awareness and treatments for heart issues. 

I'm just going to put the standard BHF info below for some light reading

The BHF has helped halve the number of people dying from heart and circulatory disease in the UK but sadly every day hundreds of people lose their lives. It's only thanks to support from people like us that the BHF can create new treatments and discover new cures. £24 could pay for two hours of research by an early career scientist, but every pound helps so please give what you can to help me hit my target. Thanks!
