Group Activities are aimed at reducing the stress and trauma of heart problems.
Also, anyone wishing to improve their health and wellbeing may join.
Take part in our fun-filled exercise classes run by our fully qualified instructors and/or join in our social activities.
Join us for our Social Meetings Held at 2pm on the second Thursday of the month - they're free! Date for your diary: 12th February.
The Sunderland Cardiac Support Group is a registered charity run entirely by volunteers dedicated to providing help and support to the people of Sunderland and the surrounding districts, who have or have suffered from some form of cardiac trauma and their partners or carers.
Members have access to Phase IV exercise sessions and social activities.
We also incorporate “Active at 60” which was developed to help anyone aged 60 or over wishing to improve their health and well being by making full use of the services we provide.
We first came together as a small group in 1993 and have been supporting each other ever since.
We are a member of the BHF Independent Group Network, one of over 120 support groups. You may like to visit the BHF Support Group page and watch a short video about the activities of a typical support group youtube video link.
The group exercises are done in a relaxed atmosphere and at your own pace, and are structured to suit individual needs and ability.
Our sessions are run by qualified fitness trainers.
The sports hall is equipped with a wide range of exercise equipment.
Come and join us for a FREE taster session.
The group exercises are usually held on weekday mornings, and these are lead by qualified fitness instructors.
The sessions are currently provided FREE of charge to members.
