We're counting down to World Heart Day on 27 September 2009.
World Heart Day is a global event aimed at spreading the message that heart disease is the world’s leading cause of death, claiming 17.2 million lives each year.
We are a member of the event's creators, the World Heart Federation, and are helping to make people aware that 80% of premature deaths from heart disease could be saved if key risk factors such as smoking, bad diet and physical inactivity are avoided.
World Heart Day this year is based on the theme of inspiring health in the workplace - which is also the subject of our brand new Health at Work website.
