Following our recent election we are exciting to share our final member of the Leeds Heartbeats committee, we can’t wait to see what they get up to!
“Hi everyone, I’m Amy and i’m so excited to be the new secretary for Leeds Heart Beats!

I’m currently a 3-Year BHF Funded PhD student, dedicating my studies to researching blood clot structure, so raising money for the British Heart Foundation to fund more crucial research like this is a cause I feel very passionate about😊

I’m very excited to get started and work with the rest of my team and start making a difference.

Another volunteering opportunity! Do you want to practice your CPR skills and contribute to the fundraising efforts going on at the University this month for the “Go Red” campaign? This is the perfect opportunity for you. This challenge organised by staff and students at UoL is a 12-hour CPR-athon, where we will aim to perform CPR continuously for 12 hours. But don’t worry - you won’t be performing CPR for a full 12 hours, you can volunteer for just 30 minutes and do as much as you can with other volunteers in that time, so you may only have to do CPR for 5-minutes. This is a great challenge and a fantastic volunteering opportunity ♥️ all our Leeds Heart Beats Team will be volunteering too!
