December’s charity month was in aid of The Irish Heart Foundation when  30 cent from each new ad placed on the site was donated to the Foundation, raising a total of €26,235.10 thanks to all you DoneDealers.

Heart disease is Ireland’s No. 1 killer and The Irish Heart Foundation is the national charity fighting stroke and heart disease.  It is a great idea to have your blood pressure and cholestorel checked and with that in mind, The Irish Heart Foundation have come to the office to give us all a quick heart health check and answer any of the questions we have about heart health.

You can see some of their very useful leaflets on their website.  You can also read about their Heart Attack Awareness Campaign which hopes to raise awareness about the importance of not ignoring warning signs because you think you are causing a fuss.

Make that 999 call if you think you may possibly be having a heart attack. The Heart Foundation’s national helpline is 1890 432 787 if you have any worries about heart attack or stroke problems.  Have a happy Heart!
