Take action to manage your heart health

Discover the Heart Foundation's programs designed to promote heart health and support individuals, communities, and health professionals on their journey toward a healthier lifestyle. We strive to prevent heart disease before it strikes through a range of initiatives that reduce individual risk and foster supportive environments.

Our national Walking Program encourages regular physical activity in a social setting, while Healthy Active by Design helps shape communities that make healthy choices easier. By promoting thoughtful urban planning—like walkable streets, accessible public spaces, and active transport options—we’re helping Australians live more active lives, right where they are.

Whether you're looking to adopt a healthier lifestyle, support someone with heart disease, or access professional tools and resources, the Heart Foundation’s programs offer practical, accessible support for every stage of the heart health journey.
