Story

Coronary Heart Disease is the biggest killer in the UK. Please help me support the amazing work being done by BHF to change this by sponsoring my marathon run!

I am running for the British Heart Foundation which is a charity dear to my heart. As most of you know my dad Eamonn passed away nearly 6 years ago from a heart attack, and since then we have been left with a very very big gap in our lives. We have a strong family history of heart problems - my dad's parents and two of my dad's brothers have passed away as a result of heart disease, with some of his siblings and other family members also having heart problems. This has inevitably brought us all closer together - I want to do this run to not only raise money but to also raise awareness of the problems of heart disease and the charity itself.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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 dig deep and donate now.

 

 

Thanks all you lovely people!
