Go Red for Heart Month is all about getting together with your community to raise money for lifesaving research.

We’re urging the nation to Go Red to keep hearts beating this Heart Month.

Fundraising ideas
Whether it’s a big ball, an office dress-up day or a red-themed quiz - red is a great theme to have some fun with.

- A classic coffee morning
- A table full of healthy treats is a sure way to raise some donations. Play 'guess the weight' of a whole red velvet cake to raise more funds.
- Quiz time
- Host a quiz and take donations from teams as an entrance fee. Ask local businesses to donate prizes for a raffle to raise a bit more.
- Treasure island
- Print a map with gridlines and select a square to ‘hide’ the treasure. Sell squares for suggested donations, marking players’ initials on the square to help keep track. The winner wins the treasure!
- Have a hearty party!
- Pump up the music and throw a party with fundraising activities, like an auction or a fancy dress contest.
- Red carpet ready
- Not a fan of fancy dress? Roll out the red carpet and go formal for a day. Make sure you take photos and donations!
- Sports tournament
- Golf days, five-a-side tournaments and dance-a-thons are great to get people together for some fitness and fun.
