My Story

I'm raising money for Myocarditis UK in memory of my brother's best friend, Alexander Jansons, who tragically died at 18 years old due to undiagnosed Myocarditis.

Myocarditis means inflammation of the heart muscle. In the UK alone one young person dies suddenly each week due to undiagnosed myocarditis. It can affect anyone at any age and is usually related to recent viral infection. 

Myocarditis UK's mission is to ensure that no one needs to endure what Alex, his family and his friends had to. With little to no information available on this inflammatory condition affecting the heart, the charity aims to research the causes, prevention and cure for Myocarditis.
