Beat heartbreak forever
We’re the British Heart Foundation and we fund research to keep hearts beating and blood flowing. Heart and circulatory diseases are often connected. That’s why our research starts with your heart, but doesn’t stop there.
Discover the connectionsThanks to you
Our vision is a world without heart and circulatory diseases. A world without heartbreak.
Thanks to you, we've made great progress, but there is more work to do.
