Story

I am running in memory of Theo Walker, beloved son of my dear friends Lucy and Dan. Theo very sadly passed away when he was only a few weeks old due to a rare heart condition.

Even though Theo may no longer be with us, the Theo Walker Fund continues to raise funds for many charities that were part of the journey that Theo and his parents were on 12 years ago. Theo the bear continues to support little people and those that care for them.

On behalf of the Theo Walker Fund I will be raising money for one of their chosen Charities "Heartline Families". Heartline supports children with heart disorders and their families, whatever the condition, wherever it is treated. It is a charity very close to their heart as it was one of the first places they turned to after their diagnosis of Theo's heart condition, they no longer felt alone and were given much needed support and advice for the journey that lay ahead.

Hundreds of children and families benefit from the work of Heartline Families every year. Your donation can help to ensure that we can continue to give them the benefits they are currently providing and more. Heartline needs funds for hospital information and (their award winning) dental leaflet packs for new Families, printing Heart Children books for Families, PGL activity breaks for heart children and for their brothers and sisters, maintaining our caravans for much needed family holidays. Heartline also offers bereaved families a place to remember their child in the Heart of Stars constellation.

Supporting Heartline Give's our little Heart Warriors a chance to live a full life.

Thank you for supporting Theo Walker Fund and Heartline Familes.
