🫀 Why We Dance

Heart disease affects millions of people every year. Many of us have felt its impact—whether through a loved one, a friend, or someone in our community. That’s why we’re coming together to raise awareness and funds for life-saving research, education, and support.

This event is especially close to our hearts because of Helder Barroso, a dear friend and local hero who saved a his best friend's life by performing CPR. His quick thinking and bravery gave someone a second chance—and now, he’s running the London Marathon to raise money for the British Heart Foundation.

Helder’s story reminds us that we all have the power to make a difference. You can read more about his incredible act of heroism in this BBC article.
