The BHF sets out to help by focusing on three vital areas: |
| • |
Investing in pioneering research |
| • |
Supporting and caring for heart patients |

Providing vital information to help people reduce their own risk of
dying prematurely from a heart or circulatory related illness |

Heart and circulatory disease is the UK’s
single biggest killer, over one in three people die from it.
Every two minutes someone in the UK has a heart attack.
Learning more about your heart condition and ways of
managing it can help you to take control of your own health. |
