Living with cardiovascular conditions can be extremely difficult physically, emotionally and practically, it is not reserved for older people – the aims for most people are to achieve old age with a good quality of life!
To the mighty oak, whose trustworthy branches have been struck by a simple bolt of fate?
“Fear not, for you have strength yet to be realised. Allow the sun to shine through”
HOPELINKs is an independent organisation identifying a variety of self-care options to support your well-being, many recommended and run by people with ‘lived experience.’
“We can’t HOPE to support everyone within the spectrum of Cardiovascular Disease. Our passion will always derive from our very roots of ‘Living with Heart Failure;’ A positive approach, to influence and maintain the need for understanding, how it is possible and practical to maintain a good quality of life, by self-managing many of the aspects associated with Cardiovascular Disease (CVD)”.
