With your support, the Better Foundation hopes to raise funds to support Blacktown Hospital’s Cardiology Unit  with new vital medical equipment to treat the growing number of men and women needing urgent life-saving treatment for Cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is an umbrella term for conditions that affect your heart or blood vessels. CVD includes coronary heart disease (blocked arteries) along with heart attackstroke and heart failure.
CVD is Australia’s – and the world’s – number 1 killer. 

  • CVD kills one in every four Australians. 
  • Every 12 minutes, one Australian dies from CVD. That’s 118 deaths every day.
  • Heart disease kills more men than any other disease.  
  • CVD death rates are twice as high for males as they are for females.
  • People living in lower socioeconomic groups, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and those living in regional areas generally have higher rates death resulting from CVD.

Heart attack is a leading cause of hospitalisation and death in Australia, claiming on average 19 lives every day. That’s one person every 74 minutes.

  • Every nine minutes, one person is hospitalised due to a heart attack.
  • One in three Australians personally knows someone who has had a heart attack.
  • Twice as many men experience heart attacks compared to females.
  • An estimated 430,000 Australians have had a heart attack at some point in their lives, and every year, 57,000 Australians suffer a heart attack.
