Who we are and what we do
HEART UK is the UK’s only cholesterol charity. Our mission is to prevent early disease and deaths from cholesterol and other blood fat (lipid) conditions in the UK. By providing support, information and influencing cholesterol services for families and health professionals, our aim is for people to know and understand their cholesterol and other blood fat (lipid) levels and take appropriate action.
We’re always striving to create a happier and healthier UK and we believe that can be achieved through simple steps like a change of diet - which is where our partnerships with food companies come in!
"Alpro have had a fantastic partnership with HEART UK for over 15 years. Raising the importance of cholesterol is at the heart of everything they do, providing such important support and advice for families and health professionals. Working closely together to produce the very popular co - branded Ultimate Cholesterol Lowering Diet , they have really helped Alpro communicate on the benefits of plant based eating including soya for heart health. They are a really great team to work with , providing so much expertise and knowledge, which as a business we know we can always rely on."

Companies we've worked with
We’re always delighted to partner with other companies to help raise awareness of the dangers of high cholesterol and the hereditary condition, Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH). Our educational literature and advice have already affected thousands of lives for the better and we’d love for you to join the HEART UK family.
California Walnuts Campaign
California Walnuts are grown with care in the perfect conditions of the Californian sun. The CWC (California Walnuts Company) is involved in scientific research examining the nutritional value of walnuts and explore the role of walnuts in a healthy diet. We were thrilled to partner with the CWC and create a campaign based on their product.
That campaign consisted of a short quiz testing people on their cholesterol knowledge with the chance to win healthy walnut goodies. After just one week of promotion, we had already received the contact information for almost 500 new people that wanted to hear more advice and guidance from HEART UK.
As you can see below, we created some great engagement and spent less than £100.00 on promotion:
> Spent on promotion: £75.00
> Unique clicks on the quiz: 993
> Cost per completion: £0.16
“Three decades of research has shown walnuts can support cardiovascular health, and our partnership with HEART UK has allowed us the ability to expand consumer knowledge about California walnuts’ contribution to heart health. HEART UK’s enthusiasm, knowledge and willingness to go above and beyond has been a huge asset to our campaign to develop consumer awareness that walnuts are a key staple in a heart-healthy diet. We have very much enjoyed working with HEART UK and are looking forward to continuing our partnership with them.”
Pamela Graviet, Sr. Marketing Director, International - California Walnut Board & Commission
