WARRINGTON South MP David Mowat is supporting the British Heart Foundation’s Mending Broken Hearts appeal.
It aims to raise money to fund research that could help people like the hundreds living in Warrington South with heart failure as a result of a heart attack.
The MP (pictured) said: “This groundbreaking research could offer hope to people like the hundreds living with heart failure as a result of a heart attack in our region. It’s incredible to think that in as little as 10 years time we could literally mend broken hearts.
“I urge everyone to support this appeal and help make a cure for damaged hearts become a reality.”
While the number of people dying of heart disease, which includes heart attacks, in Warrington has fallen from 447 in 1994 to 332 in 2008, the number of people across the UK surviving heart attacks and living with heart failure has continued to rise.
The British Heart Foundation is urging the public to support the Mending Broken Hearts Appeal. Call 0300 333 0333 or visit bhf.org.uk/mbh to order an appeal pack.
