Have a Heart and Help the British Heart Foundation

Thank You for taking the time to read my blog.
My name is Jade; I am a year 8 pupil at Torquay Girls’ Grammar School.
For my Citizenship Advocacy GCSE, I have chosen to support the British Heart Foundation.


Did you know that Heart and Circulatory disease is the U.Ks biggest killer. Over 191,000 died in the U.K in 2008 due to Heart and Circulatory disease.
Many families a year lose a precious person to them due to premature death caused by Heart Disease or Heart problems, I myself lost a sister to Heart problems and I deeply feel for anyone else who experiences such sadness. By supporting the charity and their great work; you can help prevent heart disease and heart break.
Just donate, support or get involved in a fund-raising event to contribute to BHF’s great work. You don’t need to donate much, just a few pounds.
I walked about five miles and raised over £100 for the charity and it was great to know that I had contributed.
If you have left a response, could you please leave your home town/country?

Please take a few moments to answer some questions:
  • Would you support or donate to the Charity?
  • Did you know much about the disease or charity before reading my blog?
  • Do you now feel more informed about the charity?
  • What was your original opinion about the charity?
  • Have I changed your opinion?

Thank you very much, I highly appreciate it.
Jade
