Comment: | As a medical charity, Chest, Heart and Stroke Scotland funds research projects. It also supports health education programmes, runs stroke groups in Scotland, supports chest and heart groups, and gives advice and support to those who suffer from these illnesses. There is an advice line - 0845-077-6000 - which operates during the stated opening hours. This advice line gives information to people phoning from Scotland, but refers outside enquirers to the British equivalents - the British Heart Foundation, the British Lung Foundation, the Stroke Association, and Chest, Heart and Stroke Northern Ireland. |
