At Between Breath and Beat Trust (BBBT), we support patients awaiting heart and lung transplants and their families. For patients, waiting for a transplant can be an incredibly challenging and isolating time. Families often face long hospital stays, emotional stress, and uncertainty. BBBT exists to make this journey a little easier, providing practical support, comfort, and emotional care.

Why Fundraising Matters

Your support helps us provide:

• Peer Support: Connecting patients and families with others who understand the transplant journey.
• Wellbeing Hampers: Practical items to improve comfort and dignity during long hospital stays.
• Family Activity Packs: Creative resources for children and families to stay connected.
• Accommodation Assistance: Helping families stay close to their loved ones during long hospital admissions.

Every pound you raise goes directly to making hospital stays more manageable, reducing isolation, and providing hope to patients and their families.

There are many ways to get involved and support BBBT:

• Host an Event: Organise a bake sale, quiz night, or community event.
