By supporting Bag It. Beat It. vital funds will be raised for further research.

Cilla Black says: “It was really therapeutic clearing out my wardrobe and finding items to donate to Bag it. Beat it. Why not get involved and donate your unwanted items to your local BHF shop, each bag donated will fund life-saving heart research, helping children fight congenital heart disease.”

Everyone can get involved by simply filling a bag with good quality clothes, shoes, books, handbags, DVDs, CDs, bric-a-brac and children’s toys and taking it into their local BHF shop.
