The 30 day challenge to celebrate 30 years of Chain of Hope

Chain of Hope is excited to invite you to be part of something very special: 30 for 30, a month-long campaign this September to mark 30 years of mending little hearts around the world.

Founded 30 years ago by Professor Sir Magdi Yacoub FRS, OM, Chain of Hope was built on a simple but powerful belief: every child, no matter where they are born, should have access to quality cardiac care. Since then, thousands of children have benefited from the skill, compassion and commitment of our volunteer medical teams.

As we celebrate our 30th anniversary and count down to World Heart Day on 29th September, we would love you to join #TeamChainofHope by taking on the 30 for 30 Challenge.

How it works

Choose a challenge and do it every day for 30 days this September.
Ask friends, family and colleagues to sponsor you.
Help us raise £30,000 in 30 days to support children with life-threatening heart disease.

Our goal

Together, we're aiming to raise £30,000 in 30 days to celebrate 30 years of transforming young lives. Could you help us reach this total? Every donation, no matter the size, helps us continue our life-saving work.

Why should I fundraise for Chain of Hope?

Since 1996 we have been mending hearts of children suffering with heart disease around the world. Your fundraising helps save lives. Take a look, and meet some of the children who have had their hearts mended over the last 30 years.

Meet the Children

Your Challenge, Your Way

Whether you walk, run or swim for 30 minutes each day, give up social media for the month, cycle, bake, stretch, read, or even donate £30, every contribution makes a difference.

However you choose to take part, the money you raise will help us continue providing life-saving cardiac care to children in developing and war-torn countries, giving them the chance of a healthier future.
