Global Heart Hub

The Global Heart Hub is the first global non-profit organisation established to provide a voice for those affected by cardiovascular disease. We are an alliance of heart patient organisations, aiming to create a unified global voice for those living with or affected by heart disease.

Our aim is to unite patient groups from every country in the world under the umbrella of the Global Heart Hub. Our combined mission is to raise awareness of heart disease and the challenges it presents in everyday life. The Global Heart Hub is a platform for heart patient organisations to share their views, learn from each other’s best practice, unite on common advocacy goals, and share resources. We aim to increase awareness and understanding of the many heart conditions that exist, improve patient outcomes, enhance quality of life, and optimise longevity and healthy aging.

WomenHeart

WomenHeart’s mission is to improve the lives of women with or at risk for heart disease, while fighting for equity in heart health.

WomenHeart: The National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease was founded in 1999 by three women, Nancy Loving, Jackie Markham, and Judy Mingram who had heart attacks while in their 40s and faced many obstacles, including misdiagnosis, inadequate treatment, and social isolation. These women, who lived respectively in Washington, DC, New York City, and Santa Ana, CA did not know each other at the time of their heart attacks. But they each shared a common experience about how little information or services were available for women with heart disease. To them, the issue seemed invisible within the women’s health care community.

Learn With Nurses (LWN)

Learn With Nurses (LWN) is a Community Interest Company (CIC) offering free, dynamic and innovative virtual training for the entire integrated clinical team,enabling them to make a real difference to patients.

LWN commenced training during the COVID-19 lockdown to help provide much needed education and support for Nurses through a very difficult time, though it soon became clear that we could help all Healthcare Professionals.

The Lancet Women CVD Commission

The Lancet Women and Cardiovascular Disease Commission: Reducing the Global Burden by 2030 is a collaboration between the Lancet medical journal and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

Despite being responsible for causing 35% of deaths in women each year, cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women remains understudied, under-recognised, under-diagnosed, and under-treated, with women under-represented in clinical trials. To tackle these inequities, 17 experts from 11 countries have authored the first-ever global report on CVD in women.
