💙 “My life changed at the age of 29 when I had my first heart attack. Then, after getting back on my feet, I was hit again at the age of 50 with a second heart attack.”
For Simon, heart disease isn't something he's only heard about. It's something he's lived through.
After surviving two heart attacks, Simon understands just how quickly life can change. As he says, “You never think this sort of thing will happen to you.”
Now, he's determined to give back to the cause that supported the cardiac team who helped save his life, turning his gratitude into action to help others facing their own cardiac journey.
🥊 That's why Revolution Boxing Southampton is hosting a family-friendly charity boxing event in aid of Reach Learning Disabilities Charity and Heartbeat.
This fantastic community fundraiser is about more than boxing. It's about people coming together to support local patients and families during some of the most difficult times of their lives. Every ticket purchased, every donation made, and every person cheering from the side lines will help make a real difference.
Simon's story is a powerful reminder that heart disease can affect anyone, at any age. By supporting events like this, we're helping ensure that cardiac patients and their loved ones continue to receive the care, support, and resources they need when they need them most.
