Bruce goes Red for Heart on Valentine's Day for National Heart Month

February 13, 2009 12:01 AM

The British Heart Foundation (BHF) launches its new Red for Heart campaign as part of National Heart Month this February and Malcolm Bruce is wearing red to help fight the UK's biggest killer - heart and circulatory disease¹.

Mr Bruce said: "I am urging the people of Gordon to support National Heart Month by going Red for Heart."

"I decided to go Red for Heart because heart disease is one of Scotland's biggest killers. Unfortunately most of us will know someone who has experience of heart disease so National Heart Month serves as an important reminder not to take our coronary health for granted.

Jackie Skeel, Head of National Campaigns at the British Heart Foundation, said: "I want to thank Malcolm Bruce for going Red for Heart. Everyone can get involved with the campaign so please encourage your colleagues or friends to take part and help the BHF make a real difference."

By wearing red to work on Friday 13 February, for a suggested donation of £1, you will help the BHF save lives through pioneering research, patient care, campaigning for change and by providing vital information. For a free Fundraising Kit and lots of other red fundraising ideas throughout February, visit bhf.org.uk/red.

    If you are a resident of the Gordon constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
