EP 11 ‘Heart’ of the African Caribbean Community

Christmas festivities are all about indulgence – and nothing wrong with that. But the high incidence of strokes and type 2 diabetes within the African Caribbean communities means there’s a need to consider heart health even during this celebratory season. Jacqui catches up with BME Project Manager at BHF Ali Ornhan and fictional character Patty Dumplin aka Lisa Jackson to find out what initiatives they use promote heart health to black communities in the UK. There is also a featured interview with heart disease survivor, BHF fundraiser and inspirational woman Michelle White. Featured tracks from the artists Gloria Gaynor, Chaka Khan and Carl Malcolm.
