Other ways to get involved with BHF

 

Heart Voices

HV landing imageOur local and national heart health services rely on us for feedback - good and bad - in order to improve.

But the system can be hard to understand, and it's sometimes difficult to know where to start.

Heart Voices gives you the answers you need.  Go and make a difference today. It really matters.

Where do I start?

HV landing page image small 1Nothing changes unless you change it. That's the principle of Heart Voices. You have the power to change heart care services for the better. Health care providers are obliged to listen to you and positively want to hear people's feedback.

You'd be surprised how much the NHS wants to listen. Patient Involvement or Public and Patient Engagement (the term varies depending on where you are) is part of the official promise of the NHS to the public.
