Story

Thanks for visiting my page. I'm raising money for the British Heart Foundation and I'd be so grateful for your support.

I recently lost a friend and colleague from a heart attack so a team from The NAV People and myself will be hiking 100k along the Jurassic Coast (Jurassic Park was Matt's favourite movie) so only seems appropriate.

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!
