Please share this widely! It’s incredibly important that we protect the banding of HF nurses @WelshHFNF @NIHFNurses @ScottishHFNF

With over 1 million people in the UK diagnosed with heart failure (HF), and an estimated 400,000 additional people living with the condition completely unaware, raising awareness of the symptoms (fighting for breath, fluid retention and fatigue) is vital. With more recognition, we can reduce the impact and burden of HF on patients and the NHS and ultimately, save lives. #25in25 #FreedomFromFailure
Over a million people in the UK have been diagnosed with heart failure.

Raising awareness of heart failure at Morriston Hospital today! Do you know what signs to look out for? Breathlessness, fluid build up & fatigue - speak to your GP if you or someone you know has these symptoms. ❤️#HeartFailureAwareness @WelshHFSoc @BSHeartFailure @pumpinghearts

Last year, we created a powerful film sharing real-life stories of HF patients who are now able to #LiveWell because of their diagnosis. Early identification & timely access to treatment is crucial to improving patient outcomes.
