OUR MEMBERS
Our Members support each other; they are fellow heart sufferers and carers. They talk to each other like no Doctor or Counsellor ever could. They have shared similar experiences and pain. They may be on the same medication as you.
New members can see how well other members are progressing – this is when they start to learn that there is life after a heart attack – and usually a much healthier one! We hold fund raising events to buy equipment for the Countess of Chester Heart Wards.
