THE HEART TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
By partnering with the Heart Foundation, we’re helping take on cardiovascular disease – Australia’s number one killer. It’s responsible for the loss of 123 lives in Australia every day and is a major cause of heart attacks.
But there’s something you can do to help change that.
Regular physical activity reduces your risk of heart attack or developing heart disease. By completing 30 minutes of aerobic exercise most days of the week you can reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease by up to 35%.
So, join our Hearts First challenge to strengthen your most important muscle – your heart – while raising funds for lifesaving heart disease research.
