💚 Earlier this year, the British Ambassador to Portugal, Lisa Bandari, hosted a group of clinicians, advocates and policymakers to a heart failure policy event at her Residence in Lisbon. The event, ‘Positioning heart failure as a pillar of sustainable healthcare’, showcased innovations that are transforming care, and explored how we can all work together to advance political action on heart failure. The condition is a leading cause of preventable hospitalisations, and costs European countries more than €30 billion every year. Thank you to all who joined us, and to the Heart Failure Policy Network and AstraZeneca for inviting us to work together. We look forward to continuing our cross-borders collaboration on this important topic 🇬🇧🤝🇵🇹 Watch the video from the event here: https://lnkd.in/dTVrRRZB Ed Harding | Zélia Henriques #HeartFailure #UKinPortugal
