Heartbeats Public Talk on Exercise-based Heart Rehabilitation
Heartbeats is a charity and a not-for-profit, support and education organization for heart event survivors, their family and whanau. We have four support groups operating across Auckland and over 200 members
Over 4,000 heart patients are discharged from Auckland hospitals each year.
10,000 people die of heart disease every year in New Zealand (that's one every 55 minutes).
36% of all deaths in New Zealand each year are from heart disease and stroke - its the number one mortality rate, even more than cancer.
Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation with psychological counselling support and advice on diet can reduce hospital readmission in the first year of a heart attack by almost 30%
Heartbeats is sponsoring a talk on Exercise for Heart recovery, by Matt Wood, M.Sc. registered Clinical Exercise Physiologist, from AUT Millennium, Human Performance Centre, on 7th May at Hibiscus Coast Community House, Orewa (behind the Estuary Arts Centre as you come over the bridge into Orewa).
WHERE: Hibiscus Coast Community House, 214 Hibiscus Coast Highway, Orewa
WHEN: TUESDAY, 7th May at 10:00am
Come along and hear Matt talk about the Heartbeats CARDIO heart health recovery programme which will help you:

Visit Ngataringa Organic Garden as we say goodbye to our graduating winter seedlings. Thousands of them. Ready for planting out into your beds or containers. As a local community garden we would love your support and know you’ll love these seedlings as much as we have 💚🌱
And there’s lots of variety including the super healthy kales, peas, cauliflower, a variety of onions, lettuces, celery, spinach, silverbeet, and so many more. Ready to pop into a bed or container to get those organic winter veggies rolling for the whānau. These seedlings have been sown in sterilised recycled punnets using organic seeds and mixes to the extent possible. Six-pack punnets often contain 10-12 plants and suggested koha is $3-$5 per punnet.
Enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and a scone or cake while you visit. We welcome you to join us and encourage you to explore one of Te Hau Kapua / Devonport’s lovely community gardens while you are here 😊.
