British Heart Foundation - Virtual Collections

We are all touched by the heartbreak of heart and circulatory diseases. Whether you’re taking on an epic personal challenge, organising an event or doing an online collection, every pound you raise will help fund life saving research.

The difference you’ll make

We’re the biggest independent funder of heart and circulatory diseases in the UK. 

From 3D printed hearts and internal defibrillators to regenerative medicine, we have helped improve and save the lives of many people with heart and circulatory research.

By raising money for us, you’re funding research that gets us closer to cures and treatments.

Top Tips

Make your page personal

Use your fundraising page to tell people about why you're supporting our cause and add any pictures that help tell your story. We’re all more likely to donate to causes we know our friends and family are passionate about.

Share your virtual collection

Don’t be modest about your collection or any challenges you're taking on. Share your JustGiving link with your circle by email or through social media like WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram.

Don’t forget to mention Gift Aid

If someone who donates to you is a UK taxpayer, they can add Gift Aid to their donation. This makes their donation worth 25% more to us and doesn’t cost them a penny.

Give regular updates

Let everyone know how you’re getting on with updates on how much you’ve raised, what your target is and how any challenges are going. If you’re close to reaching a milestone it might give them the extra push to donate again.

Thank everyone who donates

JustGiving will automatically send a thank you email to anyone who donates, but if you want to add a personal touch, thank donors yourself, tell them how much it means to you and a bit more about the work we do.
