Volunteer some time to help save lives in Wales

Rhywun fel chi I'n helpu ni I arbed bywydau

Heart disease touches people of all ages. Far too many people die prematurely from heart and circulatory disease. It is Wales' biggest killer - responsible for over 12,000 deaths a year - that's a staggering 33 people every day.

The good news is that since 1994, the number of people dying from Coronary Heart Disease in Wales has fallen, but those who survive can find life frightening and difficult.

As the nation's heart charity, BHF Cymru, saves lives every day by investing in pioneering research, supporting and caring for heart patients and providing vital information to help people reduce their own risk of dying prematurely from heart-related disease.

Our work has touched the lives of so many people in Wales - people like you. Please help us continue our work by volunteering some time for BHF Cymru in your local community.
