Coronavirus COVID-19 update 

As you will be aware the Covid virus is still with us.  Currently, all of Heart Support Classes are continuing to operate without any additional restrictions   We hope that this situation remains unchanged for the foreseeable future.  However, should there be any restrictions announced that could affect the operation of the exercise classes, we will advise you accordingly.

Heartfelt Thanks 

 to the National Lottery Community Fund 

and all National Lottery players, without whose support the distribution of grants to the many deserving charities, such as ours, would not be possible. 

Heart Support (North Tees and Hartlepool) are delighted to announce that our 4th financial year kicks off with a fantastic £50,000 grant from the National Lottery Community Fund, allowing us to cover basic costs and plan ahead for the next 3 years.

 

Continuing our local ongoing support for adults diagnosed with, or at risk of, cardiovascular disease, and their families in the North Tees and Hartlepool area. 

We offer a continuous programme of weekly exercise and relaxation classes, and group therapy in Billingham, Hartlepool, and Stockton: rebuilding confidence, improving and maintaining the mental and physical health and wellbeing of our members. 

Through our various social and fundraising activities, we are proud to be able to bring together family, friends and the local community.

Patient Comments 

Definitely feel better.  Blood pressure is more stable.

Needed operation but risk too great; 'just try to live a normal existence.'  Step forward Heart Support, where I get relief, both mental and physical.  Attend class and the effort put in is up to me - no pressure.  Friendships made over a cup of tea.  Can honestly say your work and methods are the best.

Diabetic;  Shocked and felt vulnerable when told of the risk to my heart.  After joining Heart Support I am feeling better both mentally and physically.  Reassuring to know its run with health professionals and caring people.

Feel very confident that the cardiovascular workout will help in no uncertain terms to stave of further heart problems.

Tutor excellent, motivating in a friendly and supportive atmosphere - fun but with a purpose.
