We’ve all seen the dramatic moment that a beloved television character clutches their chest in agony and collapses to the ground with a heart attack. Some say that the best drama is based on fact, and a number of heart attack survivors describe just that – a crushing pain in the chest, which seemingly came from nowhere.

At the time of writing, the weather in the UK could not be better, but nonetheless thoughts are turning to the summer and well-earned holidays abroad.

With better weather, lighter mornings, and longer evenings, May is a lovely time of year, when nature has truly woken up. Happily this coincides with National Walking Month, which encourages people to improve their physical and mental health simply by taking a walk outdoors.
