Healthy Hearts (Gairloch and Lochbroom)
This is aimed at people over 45 who are insufficiently active physically and/or who are eating unhealthily and/or smoking. The need to reduce the high incidence of cardiovascular disorders has motivated people in this area to suggest innovative ways of reaching all sectors of the community with information, advice and various form of practical support to address these issues effectively.
