From Diagnosis to Strength

Heart failure changes your life. But it doesn't have to define it.

Support built from lived experience by a heart failure survivor and his wife and carer. We help you understand your condition, rebuild your confidence and move forward with hope.

Created from experience

Built to help you move forward.

We've lived through the fear, uncertainty and challenges that come with a heart failure diagnosis. We know what helped, what made a difference and what we wish we'd known from the very beginning.

That's why we created From Diagnosis to Strength, a supportive membership combining lived experience, practical guidance and professional support.

It's designed to help you understand your condition, rebuild your confidence and move forward with hope.

A journey that inspires

From 15% to normal heart function.

Scroll to follow Gareth's recovery: the steps, habits and mindset that took him from diagnosis to strength.

  1. Diagnosis

    An ejection fraction of just 15%. Life changed overnight, with fear, uncertainty and countless questions.

  2. Understanding

    Learning about the condition, making sense of medications and recognising the symptoms to watch for.

  3. Rebuilding

    Moving safely, heart-healthy nutrition and managing stress. Small, sustainable steps every day.

  4. Today

    Heart function back within the normal range, and a mission to give others the support we wish we'd had.

Illustrative timeline. Normal ejection fraction is typically 50 to 70%.

One membership. Three ways we help.

Before joining, I felt overwhelmed by my diagnosis and unsure what I should or shouldn't be doing. The programme gave me structure, practical guidance and the confidence to start moving forward again. Instead of constantly worrying about my heart failure, I finally feel more informed, supported and in control.

The support that's right for you

Three levels of support. One goal.

Everyone's heart failure journey is different. Some people want clear, practical guidance they can follow at their own pace; others benefit from more personal support along the way.

Whichever path you choose, the goal is the same: to help you move from fear and uncertainty towards confidence, strength and hope, at a price that works for your circumstances.

What made this programme different was feeling that I wasn't doing it alone. Each week gave me something practical to focus on, without feeling overwhelmed. Gareth's lived experience, Katrina's 1:1 support and a community of people who understand helped me rebuild my confidence and believe in life beyond my diagnosis.
