Run for a cause! Help raise funds for BHF

Hi, I'm Scott, please join me in making a difference by supporting the British Heart Foundation.
Your contribution to this amazing cause will have a profound impact on the lives of those struggling with heart defects.
As a family, we have a personal connection to this cause, and we deeply appreciate any help you can offer.

My main motivation for running the Manchester Marathon and raising funds for BHF is due to my wife, Melissa being born with an Atrial septal defect (ASD) – A hole in the heart between the upper chambers, and a Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) – a hole between the lower heart chambers.

Although Melissa and her family faced a challenging situation at birth, it is a testament to the incredible work of the heart surgeons and staff at the Royal Brompton Hospital in London. It's amazing to think that because of them, she can lead a perfectly normal life and we can enjoy the blessings of marriage and parenthood. Their skill and dedication are truly an inspiration.

Your contributions and support of the British Heart Foundation will help them save lives through groundbreaking research, compassionate patient care, and vital information. Together, we are making a difference and bringing hope to those affected.

I will be running the Manchester Marathon on the 14th of April 2024. If you would like to track my progress as I train, you can follow me on Strava - https://www.strava.com/athletes/109670852
