Why fundraise for Heart Month?

Every 3 minutes, someone in the UK dies from cardiovascular disease. That’s the time it takes to make a cup of tea. But together, we can change that.

Whether it’s sudden cardiac death or the impacts of living with heart failure, too many lives are touched by heartbreak. Your support helps us fund the research that gives hearts a fighting chance.

How can I help?

You can support us this Heart Month, in February, by powering research that helps people live longer, healthier lives. It could be by holding a coffee morning with friends, organising a red-themed quiz or taking on a sponsored challenge.
