Cardiac Rehabilitation Class kicks off in Dursley

diagnosed with heart disease or who have had a cardiac event has recently been set-up in Dursley. The Dursley class will hopefully follow in the footsteps of the Stroud group which now has over 40 members.

The sessions are intended to enable patients to recover as quickly as possible from their condition and to offer support and advice towards healthy living, thus reducing the risks of further heart disease. Individuals who have experienced a heart attack, heart failure or undergone surgery can take part.

Matt Pearce, Healthy Lifestyles Development Officer commented:

"This is a great opportunity for people with heart disease to exercise that will improve their condition and ensure long-term prognosis."

The sessions will be delivered by fully qualified fitness instructors registered with the British Association of Cardiac Rehabilitation (BACR) and link with the Gloucestershire Cardiac Rehabilitation Team. Cardiovascular disease accounts for 40% of deaths in the United Kingdom.

The classes take place every Monday morning from 11am-12pm at the Listers Social Club. For more information patients can visit their GP or Nurse or alternatively contact Matt Pearce, Healthy Lifestyles Development Officer on (01453)754501.
