Heart Cells Foundation

Heart Cells Foundation Heart Cells Foundation was set up by Jenifer and Ian Rosenberg. In 2003 Ian was given just 2 months to live. Sadly, Ian died on 25th August 2006, aged 70.

UK charity celebrating 20 years of funding stem cell research, and in 2016, the launch of the 'Compassionate Treatment Unit for Heart Failure', at St Bartholomew’s Hospital in London. 🇬🇧❤️ It was then that he heard about cardiac stem cell therapy and travelled to Germany to receive treatment. On his return, Ian Rosenberg’s quality of life was improved and he was shocked to find no patient trials o

f the procedure in the UK. He then decided to set up the Heart Cells Foundation, alongside Jenifer, to raise money to fund ground-breaking cardiac stem cell trials at Barts and London NHS Trust. To this day Jenifer continues to campaign to make this treatment available to all on the NHS, for she is determined to make her late husband’s dream become a reality.

🫀 Your heart may be trying to tell you something.

We were interested to watch this video where Dr. Jeremy London shared potential heart symptoms you shouldn’t brush off, including signs that can sometimes be mistaken for everyday fatigue, stress, or being out of shape.

The key? Pay attention to changes in how you feel. New or unexplained symptoms deserve attention, especially when they happen with exertion.

Watch the video, know the warning signs, and don’t ignore what your body is telling you.

🫀 You don’t always know what’s going on inside your heart.

We were interested in reading in Metro that at just 38, The Inbetweeners star, James Buckley, revealed he was told he has high levels of Lipoprotein(a), a genetic factor that can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, heart attack and stroke.

His experience highlights why knowing your family history, understanding your risk and having conversations about your heart health can be so important, regardless of your age.

Could you be at risk without knowing it?

What if damaged heart muscle could be helped to repair itself? ❤️

Heart cell therapy is one of the exciting areas of cardiovascular research being explored today. By studying how heart cells work, scientists are investigating new approaches that could one day help repair damaged heart tissue and improve heart function.

❤️ Heart attack symptoms can present differently in men and women.

Although chest pain is one of the most recognised warning signs, women are more likely to experience a wider range of symptoms that may be overlooked or mistaken for something else.
We’ve put together this graphic to show some of the key differences, inspired by a recent article from The Guardian exploring women’s heart attack symptoms and testing.

Understanding the signs and acting quickly can make a life-saving difference. Please share this information with friends and family. ❤️ To read the full article, click here: https://www.theguardian.com/wellness/2026/jul/27/women-heart-attack-symptoms-testing

☕ Could your daily cup of coffee be helping your heart?

Recent research, highlighted by NPR, suggests that moderate coffee consumption may be associated with a lower risk of certain cardiovascular conditions. Although coffee should never replace a balanced diet, regular exercise and medical advice, findings like these help us better understand how everyday habits may influence heart health.

At Heart Cells Foundation, we're passionate about sharing the latest evidence-based research and treatments for people living with heart disease.
