Trent Lash from Heartbeats Eastern Bays

Over 12,000 people are admitted to New Zealand hospitals each year with heart attack, cardiac arrest or heart disease.
It is the silent killer of 10,000 Kiwis each year and affects all ages.

Heartbeats is a charitable trust, and non-profit organization that provides heart event survivors with support, education and referral to allied healthcare services.

It is community-based group, with over 200 members across Auckland and with four 'chapters' (local groups) operating on the North Shore, West and Central Auckland.
We hold regular informal, monthly group meetings and have guest speakers along to educate and advise: cardiologists, GP's. dietitians, pharmacists, health psychologists and physiotherapists/exercise physiologists.

We are looking to start a St Heliers/Glendowie group in June.

It's FREE and everyone, of all cultures and heart conditions, is WELCOME.
