Donate your leftover currency to Heart Research UK

At Heart Research UK, their aim is simple, they won’t stop until there are no more deaths from heart diseases

Every five minutes, someone in the UK dies from heart diseases. Heart Research UK’s mission began in 1967, when cardiac surgeon David Watson founded the charity following the death of a young patient after a long heart operation.

Thanks to Heart Research UK’s research, survival for children born with congenital heart disease and those who suffer heart attacks have vastly improved. However, with heart diseases still responsible for a quarter of all deaths each year in the UK, there is still more work to do.
