The Heartful dodgers appeal

The Heartful dodgers appeal aims to raise £60,000 to improve cardiac care in Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucester.

What the appeal will do

• Extend services to patients in places such as Kingswood and Clevedon.

• Start a brand new service for local patients who have mobility issues.

• Create new services for other groups of cardiac patients such as patients who have had stents inserted.

Where the money raised will go

• We will be able to buy new equipment for local patients including ECG machines, oxygen saturation monitors and heart rate monitors.

• We will be able to recruit a brand new Cardiac Rehabilitation Nurse Specialist and Exercise Instructor.

• We will be able to pay for more sessions for patients and for support from Pharmacists and Dieticians to provide education talks in community venues.
