April 2025 - HFWNI expands to South Eastern Trust

A support group for people living with heart failure, ‘Heart Failure Warriors’, has extended its reach into the Lisburn area of the South Eastern Trust, having originally been established within the Southern Trust.

Heart Failure Warriors was created to support and empower individuals living with heart failure, offering a space to share experiences, gain knowledge and feel part of a community that truly understands the challenges of this condition.

The first Lisburn meeting took place recently and was warmly welcomed by those who attended. Patients received valuable education from the South Eastern Trust Heart Failure Team, Grainne Toal and Andrea Corbett alongside Luna Cousins, Cardiac Rehabilitation Co-Ordinator.

Chairperson of the group, Nicole McKelvie, also shared her personal journey of being diagnosed with heart failure.
