Dechox to fight heart disease

-

This is a call out to all chocoholic­s, cocoa bean lovers and confection­ary enthusiast­s.

It’s a suggestion that will exercise willpower whilst helping those living with heart and circulator­y diseases. Dechox! I’m asking the people of Peterborou­gh to forget the ordinary New Year detoxes and instead just cut one beloved item from your pantry throughout the month of February – chocolate. Each year, heart and circulator­y diseases kills one in four people in the UK, 14,300 of which are from the East of England.

Money raised by those brave enough to take on the challenge will go towards the British Heart Foundation’s (BHF) life saving research into heart and circulator­y diseases. Last year, we saw over 18,000 chocolate lovers raise an astounding £1 million towards vital research, but with your help, we think we can raise even more in 2019.
