This mess.age is for every member of the ADF and their
families, and is about a campaign called Heart Health 2000
being run by the National Hean Foundnion.
In the ADF we have agned to incorpor.uc the main thrusl
of Heart He1Ilth 2000 iPlo our ongoing health and fi tness
programs, and I thoroughly oommend It to C\'cry Serviceman and Servicewoman.
Cardiovascular disease is the bigge$1 single kiUcr in Au stralia with 55,000 Australians dying annually. Heart
Health is the Foundation's latest weapon in its CQminuing
campaign against disease. The campaign is designed \0
achit\'e key pIs !O uch as liupponing advances in resarch,
community bean health education (including recognising
han allllCk symptoms and basic finil aid measures), prevcntive programs and rehabilitation of heart atlack victims . It will supplement ourexisling progr.r.ms which cover
cardiovascular preventive rrn:asures , including fitness ttst·
ing, weight surveillance standards , 'No Smoking' work
areas, the use of QU IT programs, ~riodie medicalexami·
nations (including cholesterol testing), health promotion
and health education programs.
T o do this the Heart Foundation needs money. I
thomughly commend their appeal for funds to all ADF
members. They would app«ciate contributions (which arc
tax deductible) and suggest you consider a regular dona·
tion equivalent to 'a ca n of colo:e' or 'a litre of petrol' or
'four cigarettcs' per day. Details on heart disease: and the
National Heart Foundation are available at aU ADF Health
Faci lities.
