You are invited to take a walk through journey of what the NICHS do as a charity and find out how it is currently helping the people of Mid Ulster across a range of services, including how it provides expert care and wider family support to anyone living with a chest, heart and stroke condition.

A NICHS spokesperson said: "Our mission is to lead the fight against chest, heart and stroke illnesses in Northern Ireland and in 21/22 thanks to your support we spent close to £3.5 million on charitable activities and helped almost 17,000 people and organisations across all our services.
"But we have so much more to do before realizing our vision of a Northern Ireland free from these devastating health conditions. So please drop in to meet our team on Thursday November 24, anytime that suits you."
