Heart and circulatory diseases kill one in four people in the UK. They affect us all in some way during our lives. That's why the British Heart Foundation (BHF) exists, to help protect more hearts throughout the nation.
Research funded by us is breaking new ground every day, from AI technology that can predict heart attacks, to pioneering techniques that mean more children can receive a heart transplant. There's still so much more to do and it's all down to research. Research is made possible by people like you.
Your donation can make a positive difference and help fund vital research. Here’s what your money could do:
- £25 could help give a researcher an hour of access to a powerful microscope ‒ helping to see what's going on inside heart and blood vessel cells.
- £36 could support an early career scientist to conduct two hours of research.
- £50 could help researchers measure tiny levels of chemicals found in heart tissue or blood samples to develop new treatments.
- £100 could help buy a DNA extraction kit to identify the genes involved in heart and circulatory conditions.
