Treasure Your Heart
Donate your unwanted or pre-loved pieces of jewellery with our Treasure Your Heart campaign. By recycling your unwanted, broken, or odd pieces of jewellery, you will be helping to generate funds allowing Heart Research UK to continue to take on heart disease.
Check through the list below to see if there is something you can recycle and donate today. Please note, in line with the Ivory Act 2018, we will not accept any jewellery which is made of or contains elephant ivory.
Jewellery– all types of jewellery including fine, vintage, antique and costume jewellery (even broken and odd pieces)
Watches– all types of timepieces in any condition including wrist and pocket watches, designer watches and even designer watch boxes

Mandy is here thanks to research.
Mandy from Beaverbrooks knows first-hand how vital funding for heart research is. Living an active healthy lifestyle, she never imagined she’d have a heart problem. In 2018, she was diagnosed with a serious heart valve condition, which required open heart surgery. Following successful surgery and recovery, Mandy is enjoying her favourite pastimes and living life to the full, once again.
“I really want to encourage people to donate any unwanted jewellery, it’s a lovely feeling being able to give back and know that this will help keep families together for longer.”
From your jewellery box to patient benefit
Even broken and odd pieces of jewellery have value. With our auctioneer partners, Fellows, costume jewellery is sold in lots and more valuable pieces are sold individually, every donation you make adds up! Thank you for helping to fund our work.
