SHARP event at Ocean Terminal!

SHARP and 3rd year student nurses from Edinburgh Napier University worked together to increase awareness of cardiovascular risk factors at an event at Ocean
Terminal Shopping Centre in Edinburgh in September 2007

Approximately 225 people had their heart health assessed by having their blood pressure and waist measurements taken and their BMI calculated.

 

Lorraine Kelly, one of SHARP's Patrons participated in the London Marathon in April 2005 raising £12,306.65 for SHARP.

The huge sum will help us greatly continue our research into causes and prevention of cardiovascular disease. The Executive Committee are grateful to Lorraine for her continuing support and commitment to SHARP.

Marks & Spencer Plc held a Fashion Show in aid of SHARP on 28th October 2005 in the Hilton Hotel, Dundee. The evening was enjoyed by all who attended and raised in excess of £3,000. We are very grateful to Marks & Spencer's and everyone who contributed to make the event such a great success
