A big THANK YOU to everyone who took part in the ‘Captain Tom 100’ Challenge over the bank holiday weekend. From 100 sit-ups to 100 laps of Battersea Park, to planting 100 flowers and vegetables in the garden, we had a great range of activities!
Starting this evening, millions of Muslims around the world will observe the month of Ramadan. This is a time when many will fast from sunrise to sunset, refraining from food and drink. It is also a time of self-reflection, so indeed this could be an opportunity to take a closer look at your eating habits and make your meals at Suhoor and Iftar interesting, varied and healthier.

With the results of the 2021 Virgin Money London Marathon Ballot announced recently, HEART UK has a number of charity places for anyone who wants to raise crucial funds while making history as part of the world’s first 100,000-person marathon
