Join a free networking event hosted by the University of Edinburgh on Life after Stroke. Hear from international experts, explore research priorities, and connect with clinicians and researchers to inspire new collaborations in this under-researched area. Registration required.

On the 9th of December 1988 — at a time when ill health in Scotland due to heart disease was among the highest in the world — Scottish leaders and healthcare specialists came together to form SHARP: Scottish Heart & Arterial Disease Risk Prevention. The heart charity envisioned a heart-healthy Scotland.

Since then, through our important research and educational initiatives, every consecutive committee has been building on this shared goal of 'sharp'ening the decline in heart disease.
