Story

This is my first ever full marathon so it's a massive challenge! But I'm working harder than I ever have done before, and I desperately need your donations to help me. I wanted to run for The British Heart Foundation because my own dear mum was suddenly taken from us by an unknown heart condition, and the BHF are leading the fight against it.

I’m working so hard for this because it’s incredibly  important to me. Every time I run, I think of my mum. I think of her holding me as a baby. I think of her brushing my hair. I think of her pushing me on the swings. I think of how much she loved me, she was always by my side.

I will always remember her at my wedding. Beautiful and radiant, shining on the dance floor. The very next day our lives were torn apart when she suddenly died without any warning. The grief was overwhelming.

That’s why I’m running a marathon.

+Donate because I have to raise £3,000 to secure my marathon place!

+Donate because I’m training harder and harder, getting up in the dark at 5am!

+Donate because the BHF have helped halve the number of people dying from heart disease in the UK - but sadly hundreds of people lose their lives every single day.

+But mainly donate in memory of my beautiful mum. Your donation can help save another family from going through the agony of losing someone to heart disease.

Donate now, and give whatever you can.

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
