Advocacy – Supporting The Heart Valve Disease Cause

There are many ways you can support us at Heart Valve Voice. Whether it’s through a simple conversation with a friend or family member, attending Parliament to speak with policymakers about the future of heart valve disease care, or engaging in various other activities, your contribution is invaluable.

Being an advocate for Heart Valve Voice makes a real difference. At its core, advocacy is promoting a cause. For Heart Valve Voice, this means raising awareness about heart valve disease. Advocates can engage with local media and political stakeholders, support community events, liaise with patients, and post on social media.

Advocates are the lifeblood of our charity. Whether you’re a patient, family member, healthcare professional, or industry professional, you can support our mission at events, in discussions, through media, and online.

Here are a few ways you can support us:

  • Share Information: Talk to your friends and family about the signs and symptoms of heart valve disease.
  • Engage with Media and Policymakers: Get involved with local media and political stakeholders to raise awareness.
  • Support Community Events: Participate in or help organise community events focused on heart valve disease awareness.
  • Join our Online Community: Our Health Unlocked page is an online community where patients, carers and family members can connect to ask questions and support one another.
  • Liaise with Patients: Connect with and support patients, offering them the information and advice they need.
  • Promote on Social Media: Share our messages and updates on social media platforms.
  • Tell Your Story: Share your personal experience with heart valve disease to inspire and educate others.
  • Join Our Patient Advocate Group: Become a part of our dedicated group of patient advocates.
  • Volunteer: Offer your time and skills to support our initiatives and events.

By becoming an advocate, you help us in our mission to raise awareness and improve the lives of those affected by heart valve disease.

“Getting involved couldn’t be easier. Heart Valve Voice offers a range of volunteer roles. Simply adding your voice to an awareness campaign is a great way to start. If you have the time and want to do more, you can attend fundraising or awareness-raising events, which allow you to help the cause but also have a bit of fun at the same time.”
