Legacies Administrator

The British Heart Foundation (BHF) is the biggest funder of cardiovascular (CVD) research in the UK investing £100million each year. Since the BHF was established in 1961 the annual number of CVD deaths in the UK has fallen by half. Join us to continue fundraising for our life-saving research.
 
Almost half of our income comes from people leaving a gift to us in their Will. Charitable legacies are, therefore, vital to enable us to continue our life-saving research programme to fight cardiovascular disease.
