As part of our ‘Empowering Public Services with Databricks’ webinar, British Heart Foundation detailed how they utilised Databricks to unlock the power of their data.
Client Overview
British Heart Foundation (BHF) is a leading charity organisation dedicated to fighting heart and circulatory diseases in the UK, funding research, providing support and campaigning for a healthier world. They fund over £100 million of lifesaving research each year and are the biggest independent funder of heart and circulatory research in the UK.
Central to BHF’s impactful work is the intelligent use of data. From digital CPR training to the revolutionary national defibrillator network, data drives every initiative. Through a strategic collaboration, BHF and Simpson Associates launched a robust Databricks based Data Science Environment deployed on Microsoft Azure, harnessing the power of their data and data-driven impact.
For leading non-profits like the British Heart Foundation, scalability, security and traceability is mission-critical. This Data Science Environment allows the team to access and leverage their data, working within a single unified environment and facilitating collaboration. Previously, the complexity of data sources posed significant challenges, straining accuracy, integration, and overall impact. Now, with this platform, positive outcomes are delivered such as:
- Data-Driven Decision Making: Advanced insights and predictive analytics empower BHF to make informed decisions about where to focus their efforts to achieve maximum impact and lifesaving results.
- Seamless collaboration: Real-time updates reduce data discrepancies, unify team efforts, ensuring that every decision is based on the latest, most accurate information.
- Automated Precision: This platform reduces the need for manual intervention, leading to a wealth of benefits including, significant time savings, eliminating errors, improved data quality and enhanced efficiency across all projects.
“Data is one of the most valuable assets in our mission” says Mary O’Callaghan, Director of Technology (Medical) at the British Heart Foundation. “By partnering with Simpson Associates and their next generation knowledge, we are opening a world of possibilities when it comes to guiding our decisions. This has the potential to transform efficiency, precision, and strategic data-driven choices, enhancing our mission”.

“We’re proud to be the BHF’s strategic partner in their data science transformation. This is only the beginning for them, and I cannot wait to see what they can achieve for those impacted by heart disease.”
