Heather's Heroes supports charities across the UK.
Charities that offer support, care and resources to those in need during their most challenging times.
What We Do
Heather’s Heroes is committed to making a real difference in the lives of those facing adversity. Through our fundraising efforts, we proudly support a network of remarkable charities across the UK that provide essential care, resources, and comfort to individuals and families navigating life’s most difficult challenges.
Our mission is rooted in compassion and driven by the desire to bring hope to those who need it most. By funding these invaluable charities, we help ensure that people in our local communities receive the support, guidance, and relief they deserve – whether they are coping with life-limiting illnesses, experiencing hardship, or seeking comfort in difficult times.
Our Goals
Heather’s Legacy
In January 2024, the Dallas family experienced the profound loss of Heather, who sadly passed away from cancer. A beloved wife of Allan Jnr, loving mum to Isla and Murray, daughter to Gordon and Fiona, and great friend to many, Heather’s warmth, kindness, and unwavering support touched countless lives.
Throughout her cancer treatment, Heather received incredible support from Maggie’s Highlands, and later as her health deteriorated, the exceptional care from the Highland Hospice. The compassion provided by these charities was instrumental during a challenging time for Heather and her family.
Inspired by the love and generosity that defined Heather, Heather’s Heroes was created to continue her legacy. Our mission is to support charities across the UK that provide support, care and resources to those in need during their most challenging times.
Through fundraising and awareness, we strive to ensure that others receive the same kindness, dignity, and support that Heather experienced.
Heather’s passion for helping others lives on through her family, especially her children, who are dedicated to carrying forward her spirit of compassion. Heather’s Heroes stands as a tribute to her life, her strength, and her unwavering commitment to making the world a better place for those in need.
