Story

The GRG Waste UK team will be taking on various challenges over 2021 to raise money for the British Heart Foundation, including the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge and a skydive!

I will be opting into the skydive rather than the Three Peaks Challenge as I don't think I'd manage half a peak, let alone three!

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 us hit our target.

Having always said I'd never do a skydive, the opportunity arose and for some reason my hand shot straight up... thank god it's for a good cause! 

Any donation of any size will go such a long way towards helping the hundreds of thousands of people currently suffering with heart conditions in this country, so dig deep if you can!
