According to Heart UK, every 7 minutes someone in the UK has a heart attack and you can support your community by signposting to the service you offer in pharmacy via a health promotion. A health promotion will help to spark a conversation with your community and raise awareness of the importance of ‘knowing your numbers’ and offer some healthy living advice to prevent the presence of cholesterol.  

October is National Cholesterol month so why not get involved and promote the fantastic service you offer in pharmacy?  Our healthy heart briefing sheet is designed to support you to lead a campaign and signpost to finding suitable resources from Heart UK and British Heart Foundation.
