Making strides for heart health in WA! ❤️ Yesterday, we met with WA’s MPs & staff to spark vital talks on heart health & the role they play in making heart disease history. This event marked a key step in our mission to raise awareness, educate on prevention & inspire action! 🩺

An inspiring morning at our WA Women’s Hearts Breakfast! Together we discussed the importance of addressing heart disease in women, which takes 20 lives every day in Aus. Special thanks to @ZoeArancini for sharing her Olympic journey and the importance of heart health. 💓

The 2023 Public Health Bill is a game-changer in the fight against smoking & nicotine addiction. Smoking increases heart disease risk, & e-cigarettes can lead to tobacco use. Kudos to @Mark_Butler_MP for restoring our world-leading legacy! ❤️ @abcnews @CancerCouncilOz

[Heart Foundation @heartfoundation]

Did you know women who have high blood pressure, pre-eclampsia, or gestational diabetes during pregnancy, are at a higher risk of developing heart disease later in life? Because of this, it's very important to get annual heart health checks! 🩺(1/4)
