REDFEB is an annual Heart Research Australia event where we encourage people to wear RED and DONATE on behalf of someone they care about who has been impacted by heart disease. We aim to raise awareness for heart disease and much needed funds for research into the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of heart disease.
A large component of REDFEB is our education campaign helping raise awareness for the identification of heart disease. This year’s campaign shone a light on the connection between heart health and brain health and the role heart disease plays in future cognitive and thinking abilities, and the development of dementia.
Our campaign reached over 24 million in digital articles alone. This is a significant amount of life saving education that has been shared with the community due to our REDFEB campaign.
