Support a worthy cause this Valentine’s Day with Damart’s ‘Love Your Heart’ vest campaign, raising money for Heart Research UK.
Modelled by gorgeous TV-presenter Nell McAndrew, the money raised from this limited edition vest-top, designed by home-shopping fashion brand Damart, will be used to fund pioneering projects into the prevention, treatment and cure of heart disease, the biggest killer amongst women in the UK.
Nell said, “I’m really proud to be the face of this campaign and support the fantastic work that Heart Research UK does. By buying this versatile vest top you too will be helping a great cause. Wear it with your jeans, leggings or at the gym. Please help make a difference and buy one today!”
Damart’s Marketing Director John Bottomley said, “We are delighted to be working with Heart Research UK for a fifth year and have the support of Nell McAndrew this year. The majority of our customers are women and unfortunately don’t seem to realise how at risk they are from heart disease, particularly as they grow older. We hope to not only raise as much money as possible for the charity, but also increase awareness about the disease in order to help our customers, staff and people around the UK look after their hearts.”
Barbara Harpham, the national director or Heart Research UK said, “To have Damart’s support is fabulous. Heart disease touches so many lives, some people are born with it and others develop it later in life, often through making unhealthy life choices. In fact around 270,000 people have heart attacks in the UK every year- that’s one every two minutes- ad 1.6 million people live with heart disease everyday.
The money raised from this campaign will fund pioneering research to improve the treatment for youngsters who have undergone heart surgery or are living with a congenital heart condition. Pioneering, unique projects will develop specifically-designed exercise and healthy eating programmes to suit their particular problems. We aim to help them leave hospital with the confidence they need to keep as fit and healthy as they can and with Mums, Dads and carers all given this advice and support as well, they will have the best chance to lead happier, healthier, longer lives.
This fitted black vest top is made from 100% cotton, available in sizes 10/12, 14/16, 18/20 priced at £12- all profits go to the charity.
