Raising money for

Norfolk Heart Trust

Charity Registration No. 1042644

The Norfolk Heart Trust (NHT) was established in 1994 by the foresight of the physicians and staff of the cardiac department at the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital – now University Hospital (NNUH). Charitable status was acquired and Trustees appointed including Dr. Tony Page, Treasurer, Sheila Wood as Secretary and the late Alun Creed. NHT set out to raise money “…..for the relief of sickness in the County of Norfolk and the City of Norwich with particular emphasis on heart disease ….”. There are many expensive items of equipment, necessary for the running of a modern heart unit, that were not immediately purchasable by the NHS. NHT funded a number of these over the years as set out in the list below. NHT will continue to provide such equipment or training, where possible, when funds are not available from exchequer sources. NHT has helped research projects and contributed to training of staff. Even before the recent Balloons4Hearts appeal, over £600,000 had been raised and most of that has been spent on, or committed to, various pieces of equipment, the grants made and equipment purchased are included in the grants list which can be viewed on our website.

My story

This page is dedicated to my husband Giovanni (Gio) who died in August 2006 after a 4 year battle with heart disease. Gio was well known throughout North Norfolk for his RNLI service, musical talent, his wicked sense of humour, ever ready smile and his big heart of gold.

Also to my mother Helen Frankland who died in October 2006 though heart related illness.

Both Gio and Helen received wonderful care from Dr L Hughes and his team at the Norfolk & Norwich Hospital and on behalf of both their families, my son, Harry, and I thank you for visiting this page in order to support our fundraising efforts to show our appreciation.

On 24th June 2007 at 11am we will be holding a charity cricket match between Giovanni's and Overstrand Cricket Club, this is set to be a fun family day with Bar, BBQ, Tombola, Raffle and Side Stalls followed by Karaoke at Giovanni's, Cromer in the evening. Please come and support us or if you can't do that please make a donation using this site.

Come & see us at Cromer Carnival 12th - 17th August, where you can meet Shrek, Princess Fiona & Donkey on the carnival field. Also look out for us in the parade and give us a wave.

Congratulations to the Giovanni's Human Table Top Football Team who raised a whopping £605 for the fund at Cromer Carnival on Sunday 12th August.
