Heart disease is HER disease. Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the single biggest killer of women worldwide. In the UK, 32,000 women are admitted to hospital following a heart attack each year - an average of 88 women per day, or four per hour.

About us
Every five minutes someone dies from heart diseases in the UK and it’s likely they will impact your life one day, if they haven’t already. We need to tackle this problem head on, and we need to start today. Our work focuses on developing lifesaving medical research to find new treatments and cures, delivering ground-breaking training and education, and helping communities to improve their heart health. We won’t stop, until there are no more deaths from heart diseases.

Recently, we had an incredible time joining one of our partners, THE GREAT OUTDOOR GYM COMPANY LTD for a Healthy Hearts workshop in Faversham, Kent. Hosted by Kesson Physiotherapy, the workshop brings together members of the local community for regular group exercise on a specially designed outdoor gym. 🏋️♀️🌳 We followed this up with a callisthenics class at another amazing outdoor gym in Holland Park, hosted by callisthenics expert Lee Wade Turner . 🤝Regular exercise is a great way to keep your heart strong and reduce your risk of developing heart diseases – and it’s even better when you’re getting some fresh air too! Special thanks to The Great Outdoor Gym Company, and to JUST STRONG , for providing water bottles for the attendees. 💪❤️ If you are interested in a partnership with Heart Research UK, then please email [email protected]
