Her Heart is Australia’s only not-for-profit (NFP) focused on the prevention of women’s heart disease.
Our Mission
As the only not-for-profit organisation dedicated to improving women’s heart health, Her Heart provides evidence-based education, supports health professionals, and leads advocacy and research to raise awareness and drive systemic change. We lose almost one woman every hour – or 20 women a day – to heart disease, which remains one of the leading causes of death among Australian women. Her Heart is committed to ensuring every woman has access to life-saving knowledge, quality healthcare, and the support needed to prioritise their heart health.
