You can find help and advice about heart disease by clicking the link HERE.
We want you to join us, whether you need help yourself, want to help others or just want to get involved.
Heartlink is a local charity led by heart patients, for heart patients and their families. Based in Southall, Greenford, Hanwell, Ealing, and West London, we provide support and advice to those living with heart conditions, especially those undergoing or recovering from hospital treatment.
While clinical staff focus on medical care, Heartlink offers something equally vital, personal understanding and guidance from those who’ve been through the same journey.
We are deeply committed to raising awareness about heart disease risk factors within the community. By hosting educational workshops, health awareness events, and outreach campaigns, we help individuals identify and address common risks such as high blood pressure, poor diet, smoking, and lack of exercise.
Our goal is to empower people with the knowledge they need to make healthier choices and reduce their chances of developing heart-related conditions.

Walking Towards a Healthier Heart – More about Our Walkers Group
Over the last year, Heartlink members have been sharing our new leaflet to inspire others to improve their fitness through walking – and our numbers have grown. Now that spring is here, it’s the perfect season to get outside, enjoy some fresh air, and join our welcoming Wednesday Walkers Group.
We meet every Wednesday at 10am outside Greenford Hall, next to Greenford Shopping Centre. Our walks are leisurely, lasting around two hours as we explore nearby parks and scenic paths. Afterwards, we unwind with tea and friendly conversation. Most members use their Freedom Passes for the journey home and stay in touch via WhatsApp to plan future walks.
If you’d like to receive some leaflets to share with friends, community groups, or local GP surgeries, just let us know—we’d be happy to send them your way.
Huge impact at David Lloyd Heston
We were delighted to deliver a Heart Health Awareness Campaign in collaboration with Chana Health (Chemist) at the David Lloyd (DL) Gym at Heston on Wednesday 13th May. The event brought the DL community together to focus on the importance of heart health and preventative care, offering a range of health checks including blood pressure (BP), blood glucose and cholesterol testing. It was encouraging to see so many people taking positive steps towards improving their wellbeing and engaging so positively with our project.
We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Chana Health (Chemist) for carrying out all of the health testing and to David Lloyd Heston Club for their warm hospitality and continued support in making this event such a success. We would also like to thank the Skipton Building Society Harrow for their amazing donation of the tests and testing equipment
A special thank you also goes to our Heartlink members, Kuldeep for organising the initiative and Sunny & Isha, whose support and dedication throughout the event were truly invaluable.
Successful Hub with Chair Yoga and local fire safety advice
Our Community Hub session on 21st May was a great success, with a fantastic turnout from local residents for an enjoyable and informative session.
The session began with Chair Yoga from Mr Chana, giving everyone the chance to relax, stretch and enjoy some gentle exercise in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
This was followed by a helpful talk from the LFB Blue Watch Team on fire safety and prevention. Attendees appreciated the clear and practical advice on staying safe at home and preventing fire risks.
We would like to thank everyone who attended, along with the LFB Blue Watch Team for supporting our community hub meeting. A special thanks also to Mr Chana, Jasbir, Japnam, Mukhtar, Dolly, Kuldeep, Sevraj and Isha for their support and contribution.
