British Heart Foundation Named Charity Partner of The Jewellery Show 2026

19 Aug 2026

The British Heart Foundation (BHF) has been announced as the charity partner of The Jewellery Show 2026, the UK's leading jewellery trade event, taking place at Olympia London on 2 and 3 September. The event is expected to bring together around 3,500 jewellery professionals, more than 200 exhibitors and over 50 expert speakers from across the industry.

As the event's benefiting charity, the BHF will raise funds through a prestigious tombola featuring more than £50,000 worth of prizes donated by businesses from across the jewellery sector.

The partnership has been established through the BHF's Heart of Gems Business Board, a group of jewellery industry leaders committed to supporting the charity's lifesaving research. The board was launched in 2026 and works to bring together expertise, connections and influence from across the jewellery trade to raise funds and awareness for people affected by heart and circulatory diseases.

The board is chaired by Howard Graham, whose leadership and long-standing involvement in the jewellery industry helped bring the partnership together.

The Jewellery Show is recognised as the UK's premier jewellery trade event, bringing together retailers, buyers, designers, manufacturers and suppliers for networking, sourcing and business growth opportunities. The exhibition showcases luxury, contemporary, silver and bespoke jewellery, alongside the latest retail innovations and industry trends.

Howard Graham said,

"We're delighted to be partnering with the BHF for The Jewellery Show 2026. The jewellery industry has a proud tradition of supporting charitable causes and bringing people together around issues that matter. Through the generosity of our exhibitors, partners and visitors, we hope to raise significant funds for vital heart research while giving our community another opportunity to make a positive impact beyond the trade itself. We're proud to support the BHF and the incredible work it does for people and families across the UK."

Rebecca Honey, BHF Regional Fundraising Manager, said,

“We're incredibly grateful to The Jewellery Show and our Heart of Gems Business Board members for their support. One of the greatest strengths of the jewellery industry is its strong sense of community, and this partnership is a wonderful example of businesses and individuals coming together to make a meaningful difference. Being the chosen charity for this event not only provides an opportunity to raise vital funds for BHF but also brings the industry together behind a shared cause. All money raised from this event will help power the next breakthrough in heart research and where everyone has a healthier heart for longer."
