We have now officially launched the World Heart Federation World Heart Day 2017 campaign. This year we are delighted to be running the campaign in partnership with Manulife, known as John Hancock in the USA, and Philips.
This year, our World Heart Day theme is ‘share the power’. Small changes, such as eating a healthy diet, getting more exercise and giving up smoking, can make a powerful difference to your heart health. On World Heart Day, we’re asking you to share how you power your heart and inspire millions of people around the world to be heart healthy.
As ever, we rely on your support to make World Heart Day the huge global success that it has become, particulary in recent years. This year to assist you we have produced a wide range of campaign resources, including:
- Posters
- Leaflet
- Digital and print banners
- Heart flags for you to use at your events
Please show your support by downloading and using our campaign resources
