Come join us on Sunday 15th October for a meaningful walk that brings together HeartKids families. We're walking to remember the four lives we lose to congenital heart disease (CHD) every week in Australia.
HeartKids is the only organisation in Australia dedicated to supporting families impacted by congenital or childhood acquired heart disease (CHD). No matter where you are located or how far you are into your congenital heart disease journey, HeartKids is here to support you.
UpBeat helps teens manage their health care information and get prepared to move to the adult health care system.
Every 3 hours, a child is born with congenital heart disease; the reality is that it can happen to anyone's child. Sadly, every week, four precious lives are lost due to the disease. There is no known cure for CHD.
Featuring cardiologists, experts and people from our community sharing their stories. New episodes every fortnight!
Finding out that your child or unborn baby has a heart condition can be overwhelming. HeartKids provides support for parents and carers in many different ways.
HeartKids has a dedicated space for young people (13-24 years) who have childhood heart disease to keep informed, manage their transition and support each other.
Adults with childhood heart disease have unique needs and challenges. HeartKids understands that this is a lifetime journey and we are here to support you throughout.
Heart Angels are children or young people that die from congenital heart disease or associated conditions. We provide support and assistance to Heart Angel families.
The HeartKids Helpline is available Monday to Friday.
Fill in your details here and one of our support team will give you a call.
