Keep Scotland beating

Over 800,000 people in Scotland are currently living with cardiovascular disease. But with the public’s support, the next breakthroughs in diagnosing, treating, and preventing cardiovascular disease are in reach.

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 Scotland, our #RedBenchDiaries visited the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh to speak to Sue Webber, MSP for Lothian, and her dad Jimmy about their heart stories.
