Volunteers play a vital role in the work of BHF Scotland and their dedication helps save and improve the lives of those affected by heart disease.

There are so many ways you can get involved with supporting the lifesaving work of BHF Scotland – from placing collection boxes and volunteering in a BHF Scotland shop to organising your own event, such as a coffee morning. You only have to give the time you can afford – whether it’s a regular day a week or a few hours a year. Whatever you choose to do, you’ll be able to take pride in the fact you’ve taken time to help the charity’s work in saving lives and fighting heart disease.

Giving a hand to BHF Scotland is a great way to support the charity and it can also be incredibly rewarding, so if you haven’t already got involved, why not find out more by visiting bhf.org.uk/volunteer, emailing volunteer@bhf.org.uk or calling 0300 456 8353 – lines are open 9am-5pm, Monday to Friday.
