Our vision is of a world where people do not die prematurely of heart disease. Our mission is to play a leading role in the fight against disease of the heart and circulation so that it is no longer a major cause of disability and premature death.
The BHF is the UK's largest independent funder of cardiovascular research in the UK. For over 60 years BHF has pioneered life-saving research that has helped halve the number of deaths from heart and circulatory disease in the UK. BHF also helps provide vital support and information for the 7.4m people living in the UK with heart and circulatory disease.
