About British Heart Foundation
The British Heart Foundation (BHF) is the UK’s leading heart charity, dedicated to funding research that saves and improves lives. Established in 1961, the BHF has been at the forefront of pioneering research into heart and circulatory diseases, making significant contributions to medical advancements.
With a mission to beat heartbreak forever, the BHF invests millions in research projects across the UK, focusing on understanding, preventing, and treating heart conditions. The charity also plays a crucial role in raising awareness about heart health, providing vital information and support to individuals affected by heart disease.
In addition to research funding, the BHF operates a network of retail stores, selling donated goods to raise funds for its life-saving work. These shops not only provide a sustainable way to shop but also promote recycling and community engagement.
The BHF is committed to education and advocacy, working with healthcare professionals and policymakers to improve heart health services and outcomes. Through campaigns and initiatives, the charity aims to empower individuals to take control of their heart health.
As a registered charity, the BHF relies on the generosity of its supporters, volunteers, and corporate partners to continue its vital work. The foundation’s vision is a world where people do not die prematurely from heart disease, and it strives to make this a reality through innovative research and community support.
