Many people still associate heart disease and heart attacks with older people\, however this is sadly not the case. But with screening we can make a massive difference and we will save lives. \n“This heart screening session is funded entirely by Welsh Hearts and costs £5000 per day. We are asking for a £10 deposit\, refunded to you on the day\, to ensure that we don’t have any missed appointments.” \nYou must be between 14 and 35 years old. This test is painless\, non-invasive and takes only 5-10 minutes to perform. \nPlease choose your preferred time slot below. If a time slot is missing\, it is because it may be already booked or may be a scheduled break. You will also need to complete the form in full. You will only be able to book one place at a time – so if you’d like to come along with a friend or as a group\, each person will need to make a separate booking to ensure we can collect the information we need. Welsh Hearts will only keep a record of this for the cardiologists who will see you on the day. Once you’ve clicked ‘Book your place’\, you’ll be taken to PayPal to make your £10 refundable deposit. \nhttp://welshhearts.org/events/heart-screening-barry/ URL:https://c3sc.org.uk/event-single/heart-screening-wales/ LOCATION:: St Richard Gwyn School\, Barry\, : St Richard Gwyn School\, Barry CATEGORIES:Event END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20160503 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20160504 DTSTAMP:20260405T121340 CREATED:20160311T150513Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160311T150513Z UID:48272-1462233600-1462319999@c3sc.org.uk SUMMARY:Action Learning Sets DESCRIPTION:3-day Participation Cymru training course\n\nDay 1: 3rd May 2016 10:00 -13:00\n  \nDay 2: 7th June 2016 10:00 -13:00\n  \nDay 3: 5th July 2016 10:00 -16:00 \n\nAims\nTo train practitioners in the principles and practical skills needed to set up\, develop and facilitate action learning sets.\n\nContent\n\nWould you like to enhance your learning by being able to reflect with colleagues on current work issues?
