The group’s AGM took place on the 28 th May 2026 in the theatre at Harrogate District Hospital.
The guest speaker at the AGM was Lynsey Barraclough, Head of Harrogate Town AFC Community Foundation. Lynsey delivered a speech about the work of the foundation. Unfortunately, due to an IT issue, she was unable to show her prepared presentation. If you were in attendance and want to see what she was hoping to show us, you can find it here. Even if you did not attend the meeting, I would recommend that you watch it anyway to see the work that the Foundation is doing around Harrogate. It is quite inspirational.
Lecture 30th October
Lecture – 30th October 2025
Harrogate Heart Support Group is delighted to announce that Dr Klaus Witte will be our next speaker in our lecture series. Dr Witte, an Academic Fellow of Leeds University, is a highly qualified and very well-respected research cardiologist, examining issues close to our hearts.
Many of you will remember Klaus, who has addressed the group on several occasions. His talks have always been very well received, highly relevant, interesting and, at the same time, entertaining. He has the ability to make seemingly complex topics understandable whilst keeping his audience fully engaged.
The lecture will be held at 19.00 on Thursday 30th October. The venue is the same as last time – the Lecture Theatre on the 3rd Floor Education Centre at Harrogate Hospital.
