Founded in 2018, Heart Heroes is run solely by volunteers and currently works with the Dolphin Ward in Bristol Royal hospital, Heart Heroes have been able to provide direct support to children up to the age of 16 living with heart conditions and their families. They provide everything from subsidised social events in the South West for the whole family and to sitting and having a coffee with anxious parents in the ward.
An important part of Heart Heroes vision moving forward is to create a Heart Heroes app – The Heart App. The app will help support heart children and their families even further when it comes to hospital appointments and treatments. The app will support both children with fun games, challenges and even a virtual reality option so they can turn their doctor into a cartoon character, and a grown ups area for connecting with other cardiac families, access to specialists that can support both emotionally and with any medical questions.
This app will allow Heart Heroes' support to go beyond the Dolphin Ward so that children and their families across the UK will be able to benefit from it.
Throughout February 2022 10% of profits from every sale will be going to Heart Heroes and you can also donate directly here.
