Other ways to support us

Did you know that when you use a voucher code or deal through Savoo, you can give back to us at no extra cost?

The way it works is really simple: Every time you shop with Savoo, we’ll receive a % of your spend as a donation, at no cost to you or us.

Charities like us make a lot of our income from your sponsorship when you take part in marathons and other mass participation events. With lots of events being cancelled, we need your help more than ever. If you’re doing an online shop, you can help us at NO cost to you with Give as you Live.

All you need to do is sign up (it’s free!) and access the shop you want through their website. We’ll receive a % of your spend as a donation, at no cost to you or us.

Providing a gift or service to Heart Research UK can help us to reduce our running costs and allow us to concentrate our funding on the prevention, treatment and cure of heart disease. By providing a “gift in kind”, your organisation can get directly involved in enabling us to keep families together for longer.

1. Offering your professional support and experience
It could be anything from offering free legal advice and marketing expertise to having a specialist staff member seconded to our charity for the day/week to help us deliver a specific project.

2. Donation of a gift
We are always extremely grateful to any business who can offer us a gift which we can raise money from. These include:

• ‘Money can’t buy’ auction prizes

• IT equipment

• Office supplies and consumables

• Raffle prizes such as champagne, hotel stays and restaurant vouchers

We are focused on keeping our running costs low and our spend on medical research high. We stay out of London, with a head office in Leeds, to avoid the high rental rates and only employ the essential staff we need to ensure we can deliver our objectives. Gifts in kind and professional support help us to ensure more funds go directly towards our important work.
