Our charity funds around £100 million of research each year into all heart and circulatory diseases and the things that cause them. Heart diseases. Stroke. Vascular dementia. Diabetes. They're all connected, and they're all under our microscope. Our volunteers help us fund lifesaving science to improve the lives of families and loved ones living with heart and circulatory disease. Volunteering with us is easy, flexible, and inclusive. If you can spare a few hours a week, or a couple of hours occasionally, we’d love you to join our volunteer team. Do you have a keen eye for unusual or sought-after collectables? Do you know your way around online sales websites? Or maybe you would like to increase your knowledge of the world of online selling? We need volunteers to help us with our online sales in your local BHF shop, selling a range of donated items on various websites. Come and be amazed at some of the items that are donated to our shop, research the value of our most exciting donations, photograph them for online auction, or package them up to be sold.
