National Helpline 01223 846845
Do you have concerns or worries that you would like to talk to someone about?
Our telephone helpline, as part of our national support services, normally operates 9.00am to 7.00pm Monday to Saturday
If you get no reply please leave your name and number and we shall attend to your call as soon as possible.
If you have a question or issue that is best in writing, please write to our Head Office who will try to find an appropriate person to answer it.
All the people who answer our helplines have been patients or carers so are likely to understand your concerns because they have been there.

Factsheets
These factsheets explain many terms related to heart issues. Our aim is to help inform readers of the meanings and uses of various terms.
The contents are not advice, and the BCPA and the author cannot accept any responsibility.
For ease of English style, we have sometimes used 'you' to mean the patient or carer, as well as the reader.
The Factsheets have links to the Glossary in them which will open in a new window. PDF versions are available on the Downloads page

Do you live in the UK and have you ever experienced a heart attack or heart disease? If so, we want to hear from you, because you can help us help others who are going through the same.
