Wear Red and keep hearts beating – 14 February
According to Heart Research Australia, Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in Australia, killing three times more women than breast cancer and affecting 2 out of 3 families.
That’s why we are supporting Heart Research Australia by wearing RED on National Wear Red Day, Wednesday, February 14, 2018, to raise life-saving funds for heart research aimed at keeping hearts beating.
We also encourage you to WORK OUT in RED – Show the power of exercise and Heart Health on 14 February.
