The DP took to Twitter to express his joy at participating in the Heart to Heart Run despite the chilly Saturday morning, a multitude of runners, including children, gathered for this noble cause.

“The Karen Hospital Heart to Heart Run has, for the last 30 years, become a symbol of compassion, resilience, and hope for children and families affected by congenital and rheumatic heart diseases.

“As we celebrate its 30th Anniversary, we recognise that hope has been restored to the over 400 beneficiaries and their families through this noble cause,” he said.
