What is Heart Voices?

Heart Voices is our community of people using their experience of living with a heart or circulatory condition to help shape BHF’s work.

It’s open to anyone over 16, living in the UK, and affected by a heart condition.

You do not need any previous experience of taking part in similar activities. We actively encourage people with no experience to take part, and we particularly want to hear from people from underserved groups to help us improve our work.

Signing up is quick and easy. Once you’ve done so, you'll receive a welcome email from the team with more information about Heart Voices. We’ll then be in touch regularly by email to let you know of opportunities that may interest you.

The initial reason I got involved was to give back after surviving serious cardiac events, but I've been so pleasantly surprised by all the other benefits I've got back from being involved.
