Take Heart Leicester (UK, 519484) Browse events

Founded in 1985 by a group of ex-patients who, together with their relatives and friends started a support group for patients experiencing heart problems. Sister McLellan at the then Groby Road Hospital had heard of the benefits of support for patients before and after surgery, and she instigated the first meeting at the start of 1986 when a committee was formed from ex-patients (who wished to be supportive to others and offer ‘a listening ear’), along with some Cardiac Medical staff. The committee started monthly support group meetings held on the first Wednesday of every month for patients and their carers. It was decided to name the group ‘Link-Up’ which subsequently became a registered charity. The first Chairman, Mr. Roger Smith, found that patients wished to make donations, along with other fund raising activities for the benefit of the adult cardiac wards. Support group members made their telephone numbers available so that patients could talk to someone who had gone through similar experiences, hence the need for regular support group meetings. Some years later the name ‘TAKE HEART LEICESTER’ replaced the name ‘Link-Up.
