Over 7 million people in the UK are living with heart and circulatory diseases, and living with a heart condition can influence every aspect of daily life. The good news is that small, positive changes to diet and physical activity can have a significant impact on heart health.
Each February, the UK marks National Heart Month, which raises awareness of a variety of health conditions directly related to cardiovascular disease, and promotes healthy living measures such as diet and exercise that can lower the risk.
Our health promotion collection contains material which helps both to understand heart disease, and gives practical advice on healthier lifestyle choices.
