Charity walker takes in Lochaber

-

A HEART transplant patient is walking through Lochaber as part of a 5,000-mile trek in support of British Heart Foundation’s (BHF) life-saving research.

Kieran Sandwell, 45, from Hertfordsh­ire, is taking on the challenge, called ‘ Trail of Two Hearts’, to mark the end of his long battle with heart disease after having a heart transplant eight years ago.

After setting off on February 1 from London, Kieran has already walked 1,000 miles. He hopes to raise £100,000 for BHF. Kieran will be passing through more than 60 towns and villages during his time in the Highlands including Mallaig and along Loch Linnhe.

Anyone wishing to support Kieran should visit www. atrailoftw­ohearts.com for more informatio­n.
