Councillor Paul Wotherspoon, Cabinet Member for Community Services, said: “Making small changes to your daily routine, such as eating plenty of fruit and veg, exercising regularly and cutting down on alcohol, can make a huge difference to your heart, helping to significantly reduce the risk of heart disease.

“I’m delighted that the team at Arun Wellbeing is raising awareness of heart health, and would encourage residents of any age to take advantage of the support available to help them live a healthier lifestyle.”
