Arctic Challenge for the Irish Heart Foundation
Heart disease and stroke are six times more likely to take the lives of women than breast cancer, yet cardiovascular disease in women has been under-researched, under-diagnosed, and under-treated for too long. We need to change that, and I’m determined to be part of the solution.
I’m joining 15 other women in the Arctic Challenge to raise essential funds and awareness for women’s heart health – because Her Heart Matters.
We need to empower people to live longer, healthier lives, and I’m asking for your support to help us make that happen.
Let's make sure every woman gets the care she deserves. If you'd like to support our Arctic Challenge for the Irish Heart Foundation and help improve women's heart health research, please donate here.
