Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

These guys work tirelessly in the community to promote cardiac health, supporting cardiac patients who have had surgery or who are preparing for it, and also people who need to maintain cardiac health.  The programme extends the NHS provision which, although it is excellent, is often not long enough.  The trainers also work with the NHS on their rehab programmes, which, from personal experience, are five star, gold standard  in the North Gwent area.

Sessions of exercise and support are run by incredibly hard working trainers who travel miles every day, sometimes leading up to four sessions a day. They use community spaces - churches, community centres etc, all of which need to have fitness equipment and other facilities.  Make no mistake, this charity saves lives (mine included) by working with people who need help and encouragement to stay healthy.  The sessions bring together people who have something in common; many of them are elderly and some live alone.  The social life for them is so important, makes a huge difference to their lives and is often just as important as the exercise itself.

I am just very thankful to be alive, fixed, and feeling better than I have done for years, so please help support some of the people who made that happen!  Thank you all very much.

Best wishes 

Steve
