The British Heart Foundation has announced a plan to close around 150 high-street shops and cut jobs as rising costs and a shift to online shopping weigh on profitability. The charity says around 90 stores will close by next March, with the rest by March 2028, while central roles are also being cut.
Recent studies show that modest daily habits—like extra sleep, brisk walking, and eating more vegetables—can significantly reduce risks of cardiovascular disease and dementia. These small, sustainable adjustments are more achievable than major lifestyle overhauls and can lead to meaningful health improvements.
