What's On |
The Heart Foundation runs many events around the country that help raise awareness and money to help us fight the battle against cardiovascular disease.
There are a huge variety of things going on - golf days, dinners and information sessions are just some of the activities that are coming up. There is also a state based list of Past Events.

Will you recognise your heart attack? Learn the warning signs.
Heart attack warning signs aren’t what you think. Symptoms vary and they may not always be severe. Some people do not experience chest pain at all. The Heart Foundation’s 2009 HeartWatch survey found that only 12% of people would recognise symptoms such as jaw, neck, back or shoulder pain as a warning sign of a heart attack. This is why, during Heart Week 2010, the Heart Foundation will urge all Australians to better identify the warning signs of heart attack.
To find out more visit www.heartattackfacts.org.au or call our Health Information Service on 1300 36 27 87.
