Story

On your marks, get set, go! Help us to raise money for pioneering research. Bake, walk, run, swim, cycle - help us fund life saving science with a fundraising activity of your choice. 

To find out more about  fundraising for the BHF, check out our website www.bhf.org.uk/dofe for more information and access to the fundraising resources. 

Whether you are doing your Bronze, Silver or Gold DofE award we have fundraising ideas so you can support the BHF as part of your volunteering section. 

Get in touch using our dedicated DofE email dofe@bhf.org.uk for more information or if you have a query about your activity or assessment.

As an Approved Activity Provider for the volunteering section of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award, we are thrilled to offer a range of fundraising activities including virtual volunteering. Whether you fancy being sponsored to give up chocolate or take part in an activity challenge where you can pledge a set number of steps and distance over the weeks we can help.

Covid-19 has put people with heart and circulatory conditions at greater risk than ever. But the effect of the virus has also cut our new lifesaving research in half. Slowing down now would put even more lives at stake. At a time when hearts need help more than ever, we urgently need your support.

• £2 can help researchers we fund to isolate the DNA from a patient’s blood sample, in the hope of finding faulty genes causing heart and circulatory diseases.

• £25 could help to give a researcher an hour of access to a powerful microscope – helping them to see what’s going on inside heart and blood vessel cells.
