GO RED FOR WOMEN WELLNESS WEEK

We then rounded off today's show talking to Michelle Kearney from the Heart and Stroke Foundation discussing their Go Red For Women Wellness Week.


Go Red for Women is an international movement aimed at increasing awareness amongst women of the risk factors and signs for heart disease. The Heart and Stroke Foundation SA will be hosting a Go Red for Women Wellness Workshop on the 23 August (07h30 for 08h00) at the Vineyard Hotel & Spar in Cape Town, to raise funds and awareness of this campaign.
“We are very excited to host the very first Go Red for Women event in Cape Town”, said Hugo Coetzee, Marketing Manager, The Heart and Stroke Foundation SA. “Women still see heart disease as a man’s disease, so it is my hope that this event — while being fun and entertaining — will also be eye-opening and educational for all who attend.”
Renowned Cardiologist Dr Adrian Horak will provide important information about how heart attacks present differently in men and women, and much loved Women.24 Editor, Sam Wilson will share her pointers on how to juggle the demanding aspects of work and personal life.
