HeartLinks annual picnic was tentatively scheduled for June 12, 2021. Given that our numbers of COVID positive continue to increase, with an increasing rise in variants, including public gathering restrictions, the Board decided not to organize the picnic until the risks associated with COVID are reduced. We will keep you informed as to upcoming events when our public health environment changes. April was a busy month of organ donation awareness with Green Shirt Day and National Organ and Tissue Donor Awareness Week - NOTDAW recently wrapping up. It was an incredible month! Since the start of April, 1000 Manitobans have registered their donation decisions using Manitoba's online organ and tissue donor registry, www.signupforlife.ca. Registry currently holds more than 54,000 registrations and the number climbs every day. We all look forward to next year while continuing to make organ and tissue donor awareness part of everyday conversation. Did you know the healthy living tab in the Heart and Stroke link offers excellent information from healthy eating to reducing stress. They even have a wide array of tasty recipies. Will you try some? Due to COVID-19 many events have been either cancelled or altered. Please stay tuned for updates. Please visit the events page for a complete list of cancellations due to the COVID-19 virus. We will keep you informed of any upcoming changes or cancellations to our normally scheduled upcoming events. Readers will also see any upcoming local, provincial or national events.
