On creating 'Heartwork', Paul Hartnoll said Adding to the experimental nature of the music, Evans Cycles has also commissioned Alex Rutterford, who has previously worked with the likes of Radiohead, to design the artwork for the single. Three exclusive vinyl pressings are being made available via auction to raise further funds for the British Heart Foundation.

Motivated by this, Evans Cycles is continuing its campaign first launched in 2008, by pledging to make Britain healthier and get 250,000 more Brits cycling to work by 2028. Currently, heart and circulatory diseases kill more than 150,000 people in the UK each year, but a healthier lifestyle can often reduce the risk of developing it. Bianca O’Donnell, Head of Corporate Partnerships at the British Heart Foundation comments: Evans Cycles also spoke to commuters in the North West of Britain, where coronary heart disease death rates are the worst in the country. They found many commuters that have switched to cycling from a less active commute, and now lead a much healthier lifestyle.
