Candis and Weight Watchers are two of our long-term partners who continue to help us raise vital funds and communicate crucial heart health messages.
Candis magazine takes the all-important work of the BHF to over 300,000 women. Its offer of two editorial pages every month gives us a golden opportunity to let women across the UK know about heart health and how they can get involved with us by donating or fundraising. Candis has donated £50 million to various charitable organisations, including £1.2 million to our life-saving work since becoming our media partner in 2001. It's a great partnership and we hope that it will run and run.
Our partnership with Weight Watchers allows us to inspire and motivate over a million of their members to get heart healthy at 6,500 Weight Watchers meetings each week. The partnership has raised £600,000 to date, nearly £220,000 in 2007 alone, through unique events like the Weight Watchers and BHF World Experiences walks, which give adventurous walkers the chance to get fighting fit and raise vital funds.
