Heart Month 2026
This Heart Month, in February, keep us beating heart disease by taking on on a walking challenge or organising your own fundraising event to power lifesaving research.
In the UK, someone dies from a heart or circulatory condition every 3 minutes.
This Heart Month, we're calling on everyone to help keep hearts beating.
No matter how you choose to support British Heart Foundation (BHF) this Heart Month, thank you. Our hearts are precious, and with your help, we can protect them.
