The British Heart Foundation (BHF) has defended its partnership with gambling operator Sky Bet, saying the aim of the relationship is to help promote its cardiac arrest campaign rather than highlight the operator in any way.<\/p>\n

The campaign aims to get soccer fans to educate themselves about CPR so they can help when emergencies arise at stadiums during games. Sky Bet is the current title sponsor for the English Football League (EFL)<\/a>, which is why the two parties came together.<\/p>\n

The BHF was responding to inquiries from Civil Society <\/em>after some people questioned the arrangement. The foundation partnered with Sky Bet in May and it has a goal of raising as much as \u00a33m ($4m) to drive the education efforts.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Civil Society<\/em>, Coalition to End Gambling Ads Director Will Prochaska criticized the partnership, saying it is \u201canother low for the charity sector in Great Britain\u201d and that these organizations shouldn\u2019t \u201cwash the reputations of harmful industries.\u201d<\/p>\n

Researcher Alex May expressed similar concerns and said that because the BHF\u2019s branding is next to Sky Bet\u2019s during the campaign, it is still publicizing the operator.<\/p>\n

BHF Corporate Fundraising Director Teresa Hicks emphasized the results the campaign is generating so far and believes the relationship will lead to positive change.<\/p>\n
