About Us

From shops to events, Heart Nurses to Professors, find something near you on our map. As a charity we rely on your donations to continue our vital work. Your support makes our life-saving research possible. Please help us to help you look after your heart.

Our Local Shops

Our shops raise money for our life-saving work through the sale of donated second-hand items. We sell good quality new and second hand furniture, electrical goods, clothes, shoes, accessories, books, CDs, videos, DVDs, toys and bric-a-brac. We also sell some new items too. Across the UK we have over 725 shops. We're actually the biggest second-hand furniture and electrical retailer in the UK, with over 153 dedicated Furniture and Electrical stores.

Research

We aim to play a leading role in the fight against diseases of the heart and circulation by supporting vital, pioneering research into their causes, prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Our research grants are one of the ways we do this.
