“How can we make a difference?” That was
the simple question the medical professionals who founded the
British Heart Foundation (BHF) in 1961 asked themselves. They knew
more and more people were dying from heart and circulatory disease
and it was time to act.
Just by asking
and answering that question and inspiring others from all walks of
life to do the same, we have made extraordinary progress.
Nearly 50 years later, with your support and generosity, the
advances made against heart disease are far beyond anything our
founders could have imagined. There is still a long way to go.
But when determined, resourceful people work together to
reach a common goal - it’s amazing what can be
achieved.
Real progress is made and measured by people like those featured
in this year’s Annual Review. Read about different people's
achievements by clicking their pictures above.
