🥳 The end….and we couldn’t be more proud.
What an adventure, what an achievement, what a remarkable thing to do. To walk over 75 miles to raise awareness and money for a local charity, Hearts United is incredible.
Sadly, 12 young people aged 14–35 die every week in the UK from undiagnosed heart conditions. The charity has now screened 1,404 young people and 104 have been referred for further investigation. One of these was Roald. Our son. of those have needed heart surgery, which has potentially saved their lives. Roald’s friend needs surgery. Daunting for all involved but also relief that the screening is doing exactly what it’s set out to do. Preventing young adults from losing their life to an undiagnosed heart condition. 💕
So as tough as it’s been for them , with the miles, weather, tiredness and lack of sleep, severe blister’s and nail, foot issues 🥴 they’ve done it for something that really does make a difference.
This journey for the 8 local fellas involved has been immense and one I’m certain they will never forget. Building strength, resilience and character but also growth. This journey for such a good cause has been another step on the ladder to being a young adult and they have absolutely smashed it. 💪💙
Well done to each and every one of you. 👏🙌🫶
Thank you so very much for all the donations we’ll keep the tub out at the pool for a few more days for anyone wishing to still donate.
