"There are prevention strategies in place to tackle vascular disease, particularly those which stem from the Coronary Heart Disease, Diabetes National Service Frameworks and the new NHS Health Check programme. Primary Care Trusts began phased implementation of the NHS Health Check programme from April 2009. This is a national preventative programme that will assess people's risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney disease and diabetes and will support people to reduce or manage that risk through individually tailored advice. However, we recognise that it is extremely important that existing disease is picked up by the NHS and the vital role GPs can play in this. Having knowledge about peripheral arterial disease is a fundamental aspect of a GP’s caseload, it is included within the current curriculum for GP specialty training and I welcome this opportunity to raise its profile."

Vascular Disease Awareness Week (8th – 12th March) is run by the Circulation Foundation, the UK’s only national charity dedicated to raising money for pioneering research into the causes, prevention and treatment of vascular disease.

Details about screening and fundraising events supporting Vascular Disease Awareness Week can be found at www.circulationfoundation.org.uk, which also provides information, support and advice on vascular disease.
