Jump Rope for Heart - British Heart Foundation

Jump Rope For Heart is the BHF's popular sponsored skipping challenge, which raises money both for your school or group and the charity. It takes its name from the American term for skipping - jump rope.

Everyone's A Winner!

Suitable for schools, youth clubs and groups organising children's activities
Schools/groups may keep 25% of the money raised for equipment
Staff have any exercise routine that is easy to organise plus supporting Teacher's pack
Children are encouraged to exercise their hearts and co-ordination skills and it's great fun too!
BHF's 75% of the money raised goes towards the charity's fighting heart and circulatory disease

All schools who register will receive a free skipping resource kit to enable them to introduce Jump Rope to children through the physical education curriculum, after school, or in the playground. With the help of the Active School Co-ordinator, more than 28 Jump Rope days have taken place already.
