5k Everyday: Harry’s BHF Fundraiser

In January, I will be running a minimum of 5k everyday to raise money for the British HeartFoundation for the help and support they have given my family 

4 years ago, my mum was rushed to hospital because of a burst artery in her heart, she had no underlying health conditions, she doesn’t smoke, or even drink more than a few glasses of wine.... To this day the doctors cannot explain why it happened.  It was such a traumatic experience for her, and us as a family, seeing the strongest woman we know and love in such abroken state; having to take so many different types of medication and not being able to complete routine tasks without feeling fatigued. 

It took a good 2 years for my mum to recover from this situation and to get back to a position where she is healthy, happy and could finally be herself. I am so proud of her for getting over this mountain of a challenge and want to do something which will raise money for the charitywhich helped our family so much ! The British Heart Foundation (BHF) were there for us every step of the way, helping with exercise classes and provide the support mum needed to strengthen her heart. I personally cannot thank them enough for this, which is why I have set this challenge for myself in an attempt to raise money for all the good they do !
