#### Thortful & NHS Charities Together

This Mother’s Day [thortful](http://www.thortful.com/) is celebrating ‘The Mother
of the Nation’, the NHS. The online card company is donating 5p per Mother’s Day
card sale and £5 of every Tulip Rainbow Bouquet sold to [NHS Charities Together](https://www.nhscharitiestogether.co.uk/)(
NHSCT), a charity which provides funds and support to the NHS and its frontline 
workers and volunteers every day. NHS frontline workers have also created Mother’s
Day cards to raise money for NHSCT. Thortful set itself a target of raising £110,000
for the charity – and has already exceeded that.

#### BHF’s Heart of Steel

BHF is offering to engrave names on a [metal heart sculpture](https://www.bhf.org.uk/how-you-can-help/fundraise/heartofsteel)
for Mother’s Day. The Heart of Steel is a sculpture in Yorkshire with space to engrave
150,000 names. It’s part of the wider Steel Man project, a future landmark that 
will overlook Sheffield, and the Heart will eventually be included inside the 32-
metre Steel Man.  For £20 you can have a name engraved on BHF’s Heart of Steel and
help it continue to fund life saving research. You can add up to two dates next 
to a name – such as birth, death or marriage, and you’ll be sent a printed certificate
of your engraving.
