World Heart Day

Heart Disease can hide in plain sight:Don’t miss a beat

Join our mission to prevent millions of premature deaths due to CVD and call on governments to make equitable heart health a priority.

CVD TOUCHES MILLIONS OF LIVES

Each year on World Heart Day (29 September), the World Heart Federation brings together its global network of members to unite and raise awareness of cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Don’t Miss a Beat

In 2026, we will continue the momentum of ʻDonʼt Miss a Beatʼ, raising awareness of the worldʼs number one killer and highlighting the importance of recognising the signs and symptoms of CVD.
