How we do it
Our fundraisers and supporters are at the heart of everything we do

Everyone plays a part
Every pound you raise helps people with heart and lung conditions live longer, healthier lives.
From fun runs to major gifts
Whether it’s a local coffee morning, a marathon or a multi-million-pound pledge, each and every donations funds projects that go beyond NHS budgets. Your support pays for equipment, research, innovation, technological advances and care that makes a real difference to patients and staff.
You support us in so many ways – and we appreciate it so much. Here are some of the ways you’ve made a difference:
- Participated in community events, like the Harefield Fun Run
- Took on a challenge event, like the London Landmarks Half Marathon
- Grants from trusts and foundations
- Donations from philanthropists
- Payroll giving and workplace fundraising
- Gifts in wills
- Online fundraisers
- Support from schools and community groups
Why it matters
Together, we fund vital advances in care – like the UK’s most powerful MRI scanner for cardiac research, psychological support for ICU patients, and vital new tools to diagnose rate heart and lung conditions more quickly.
However you choose to give, you’ll be helping to change lives.
