This can be found in the related races section below. The BHF York Fundraising Group have been organising Chase The Pud York for around 20 years, & with this in mind we’d love if each of our entrants could raise just an extra £20 through Just Giving sponsorship to support the BHF's work into finding the cures & treatments needed for heart & circulatory diseases. In York alone, there are around 26,000 people living with these conditions, & each month, devastatingly, 40 lives are taken in this area because of them. With your help we can keep more families together in our local community. Once you have signed up, instructions will be sent on how to set up your Just Giving Page. The BHF is the biggest independent funder of heart & circulatory research in the UK & they fund around 900 life-saving projects every year, led by specialist cardiology professors and scientists. Before they existed over half of all UK deaths were from heart & circulatory diseases. But BHF scientists, & supporters like you, have helped half that number. Their work has literally turned science fiction into reality. Machines that can restart hearts. The ability to fix arteries in tiny babies. The power to give someone a heart they weren't born with. Thank you to everyone who signs up to Chase The Pud York 2024, because of you, we can help the BHF continue to fund life-changing research. * Registration open from 9am. Race begins at 10:30.
