Cardiovascular disease remains the single biggest killer in County Mayo, accounting for 40 per cent of all deaths, according to local heart charity Croí. The good news is however, that early detection and management of risk factors can help reduce the number of deaths and increase how long people live.

Local heart charity Croí’s Heart Smart Mayo programme which is a collaboration with HSE West’s Mayo PCCC is hosting a series of free public talks on Eating for a Healthy Heart in Ballina and Castlebar in the coming weeks.
