Join Strong Woman for Life

• Access to the Strong Woman for Life score tool. You can discover your baseline score before you start, then you can use the tool to update your score as you move through the programme, to keep an eye on your progress.
• A monthly e-newsletter packed with tips and inspiration, including a video guiding you through a 30-minute workout designed for women aged 45+.
• Weekly motivational emails to keep you on track, with useful advice and mini exercise challenges.
• Access to our exclusive Facebook community. 

Together, these resources will help you improve your strength, stamina, movement, nutrition and rest scores, and your monthly donation will help fund lifesaving cardiovascular research that keeps us beating.

The amount you pay each month is made up of a £2 minimum payment for taking part, which covers processing costs, plus your monthly donation.

We suggest a monthly gift of £12, £15 or £25, but it’s up to you how much you give. For example, if you choose to pay £25 per month, £23 is your monthly donation towards cardiovascular research.

By signing up to the Strong Woman for Life programme you’re confirming you have read and agreed to British Heart Foundation’s terms and conditions and privacy statement.

Your monthly contribution includes a minimum payment of £2 inclusive of VAT (“subscription fee”) which is payable for participating in this programme and covers our cost of producing the Strong Woman for Life programme you will receive. Any amount in excess of the £2 subscription fee will be treated as a Donation to BHF. Gift Aid may be claimed where eligibility criteria are met and a valid declaration has been completed. If you opt not to make any additional contributions (Donations) to our valuable work, the minimum contribution is £2. For the excess contribution above £2 that is treated as a donation, you can alter the amount of the donation element or cancel the donation without it affecting the use of the service.

If your subscription is paused by BHF we will let you know and ask whether you would like your optional donation to continue as a monthly gift to BHF to support our lifesaving work. If you do nothing, your donation will stop.

Should for any reason the Strong Woman for Life programme be discontinued with no new content then BHF would notify you, and we will ask whether you would like your optional donation to continue as a monthly gift to BHF to support our lifesaving work. If you do nothing, your donation will stop.

b) To investigate cases where fundraising practices have led to significant public concern.

c) To adjudicate complaints from the public about fundraising practice, where these cannot be resolved by the charities themselves.

d) To operate a fundraising preference service to enable individuals to manage their contact with charities.

e) Where poor fundraising practice is judged to have taken place, recommend best practice guidance and take proportionate remedial action.

f) To be honest, fair and open about fundraising with their supporters.
