Red Bench Diaries

To mark 65 years since the BHF was founded, we have unveiled 65 red benches across the UK in celebration of those who have survived, or are living with, cardiovascular disease.

In Northern Ireland, our #RedBenchDiaries visited Parliament Buildings, Stormont, to speak to MLAs Deborah Erskine and Philip McGuigan about their heart stories.
