Piush's Manchester Marathon
The British
Heart Foundation fund over £100 million of research each year into all heart
and circulatory diseases and the things that cause them. Heart diseases.
Stroke. Vascular Dementia. Diabetes. They’re all connected, and they’re all
under our microscope.
Research
has given us machines that can restart hearts, the ability to fix arteries in
tiny babies, devices to correct heartbeats, the power to give someone a heart
they weren’t born with, and so much more. We’ve helped transform survival rates
but heart and circulatory diseases still kill 1 in 4 people in the UK, they
cause heartbreak on every street. And our work is urgent and vital as ever.
Our
research is the promise to protect the people we love. Our parents. Our
brothers. Our sisters. Our grandparents. Our closest friends. Research is who
we are. The promise of future cures and treatments. The promise to beat
heartbreak forever.
People’s
donations have got us this far. Every breakthrough we’ve made, funded by people
like you. Together, we can beat heartbreak forever.
When I
first set on this journey of doing the Manchester Marathon there was no reason
other than a challenge with a few work colleagues. To support the chosen
charity British Heart Foundation. I have just recently found out that my father
has Congestive Heart Failure so now this run will be more personal to me to
support people with heart conditions.
It's only thanks to support from people like us
that the BHF can create new treatments and discover new cures. I am also
looking to donate a small percentage of money raised to Bolton Mandhata Youth
Group. Please give what you can to help me hit my target. Thanks!
