Take on 27 during National Heart Month 2025.
Story
NW Hearts Charity is your local charity, supporting people across Greater Manchester. We are passionate about redressing the inequalities and improving the lives of people who are living with, or at risk of, heart disease, and their families. We fund and support projects which change lives.
27% of deaths in the UK are caused by heart and circulatory disease*.
This figure is considerably higher in Greater Manchester, with people having a significantly reduced life expectancy due to poor heart health.
Take on 27 during National Heart Month
This is why we are asking you to ‘Take on 27’ days of activity this National Heart Month and help raise funds to support our work of improving heart health outcomes for your local communities.
Can you ‘take on 27’ days of activity throughout February and raise funds for NW Hearts Charity?
Here are some ideas you could include:
-
Go for a 30 minute walk
-
Do 25 sit ups
-
Do a 5k run
-
Go for a 5k bike ride
-
Do 10,000 steps a day
-
Do Yoga or Pilates classes
-
Do a YouTube fitness video for 10 minutes
-
Quit alcohol for 27 days
-
Quit smoking (once you have passed 27 days there will be no looking back)
You know your limits and what you are able to do. Whilst we would like you to set yourself a challenge that people will sponsor you for, please be careful and be sure to listen to your body. If you are not used to being physically active, just do small activities each day and increase them if you feel you can.
Please support NW Hearts Charity during National Heart Month, February 2025 and together we will improve heart health outcomes in Greater Manchester.
