HEALTHY HEARTS GRANTS

Heart Research UK has announced the next funding round under its Healthy Heart Grants Scheme opened on the 1st January 2013. Heart Research UK Healthy Heart Grants support innovative projects designed to promote heart health and to prevent or reduce the risks of heart disease in specific groups or communities. Grants of up to �10,000 are available to community groups, voluntary organisations and researchers who are spreading the healthy heart message. Projects supported in the past have included the Foresight Project in Grimsby which encourages visually impaired people to take regular exercise using tandem bicycles; and the Ross-shire Bravehearts project in Inverness which educates adults with learning difficulties about heart health so they can take part in physical activities. There are two applications rounds per year. Applications are only accepted during January and February for the May round of grants and July and August for grants awarded in November, each year. The closing date for this funding round is the 28th February 2013
