Healthy hearts in Hertfordshire

Walking CREW Heart Support GroupAs Heart Support Groups go, Heart to Hert is one of the bigger ones with nearly 700 members, and growing!

Members enjoy a whole host of activities. There are monthly meetings with guest speakers, indoor games and plenty of trips to the seaside or the theatre.

When it comes to exercise, Heart to Hert is doing lots to support heart patients and carers alike to be more active. There are ten exercise sessions a week ranging from Pilates to BACR Phase 4 cardiac rehab. And as if that isn’t enough, Heart to Hert also puts on two monthly walks: a flat country walk, and a slightly more energetic ‘puffers walk’ - aptly named because it includes a few hills to get you huffing and puffing!

Heart to Hert even has its own helpline which members can call for support with transport to hospital appointments or just for a friendly chat.
