Leading Charity HEART UK Looks for Local Commercial Support as it Seeks New Headquarters

May 15, 2012 - PRLog -- Based in Maidenhead, the charity is hoping to identify a company with office space to spare, who want to support HEART UK as it seeks to cut costs and raise significant funds to enable them to continue to provide their services to patients and their families.

HEART UK Chief Executive Jules Payne said: “HEART UK has been based in Maidenhead since its foundation and we hope to remain in the area. We are looking to identify a business in Maidenhead or surrounding area with around 900 square feet of space which is currently not used, perhaps due to cutbacks in these challenging economic times.

“Charities are feeling the pinch as well, but the need for our lobbying, educating healthcare professionals and support for patients and their families continues to grow. Corporate social responsibility is an integral part of most major businesses now and by helping us with a new headquarters, a local company would be providing a perfect solution that will benefit the thousands of people we help each year. It would allow us to focus on raising funds for those with high cholesterol, this affects two out of three UK adults and 120,000 people in the UK have a form of inherited high cholesterol that can lead to early death if not diagnosed, 85% of the 120,000 remain unidentified.”

HEART UK is looking to move into a new office by the end of March 2013.

If you work for a business with 900 square feet of office space or more available for HEART UK, please contact their current headquarters on 01628 777046 and speak to Sally Hall or email at sh@heartuk.org.uk .
