We put into practice our advice to other workplaces about offering opportunities to exercise and de-stress at work.

We have access to a 20 minute massage or reflexology session, and pilates at lunch time, at very reasonable cost.

These are just the things I go to, and there are even more that suit other people’s tastes.

Business Unit Grant administrator

I have worked at the Foundation for just over three years and enjoy many aspects of my job. The role of Business Unit Grant administrator has allowed me to acquire lots of skills.

My job incorporates the provision of Emergency Life Support grants called ‘Heartstart’ to schools and schemes within England and Wales.  Essentially, it is simple skills that save lives

It is very rewarding to find out that the life of a parent or loved one could have been saved by a child who has been taught the Heartstart programme, co-ordinated by the BHF.

Helpline in the Community

I've worked for BHF for over six years. In that time I've had lots of opportunities including support with further study and promotion.

My background is in cardiac nursing: I've used that knowledge and acquired a whole new range of skills.

The pace of work is fast, there is lots of variety and always an opportunity to try something new. It's challenging and rewarding. I love working for BHF so I'd recommend it!
