On 5th April 2013, the National Heart Forum became the UK Health Forum. Our new name reflects the wider focus of our work today, both within the UK and internationally, across the range of preventable non-communicable diseases that share common risk factors and determinants.
The organisation was established in 1984 following the recommendation of a group of 80 scientists, medical practitioners and lay representatives for the establishment of an "active authoritative body at the national level to speak out for policies directed at the prevention of coronary heart disease" and to maximise the contributions of not-for-profit sector organisations.
Our Governance
We are governed by a group of trustees who volunteer their time to help direct our work. Fiind out more.
