Healthy Heart Grants

Funding for innovative projects that help to prevent, or reduce, the risk of heart disease in local communities in the UK.

Working in partnership with the SUBWAY franchise, Heart Research UK is accepting applications to the next round of its programme for the promotion of heart health.

With each region of the UK having its own funding window, the current round is open for groups in England. Two grants of £15,000 each will be awarded.

Funding is for new projects that work with communities to prevent heart disease, particularly for vulnerable and isolated groups of individuals who are at an increased risk of developing heart problems in the future. Projects that are likely to have a big impact and have considered novel ways to encourage people to look after their hearts and promote positive lifestyle changes are also sought.

Activities must focus on one or more of the following risk factors of heart disease:

Nutrition and Healthy Eating
Physical Activity
Smoking
Alcohol

Not-for-profit organisations with a turnover of less than £1 million are eligible to apply. This includes charities, community groups, voluntary organisations, and sports groups.

The deadline to apply is 8 June 2023.
