Welcome to Pacific Heartbeat
"Making a difference to the health of Pacific Peoples"
Pacific Heartbeat (PHB) is a community health promotion initiative of Heart Foundation of New Zealand.
Pacific people experience high rates of cardiovascular disease, such as stroke and heart attacks, in comparison to non-Pacific New Zealanders. PHB aims to make a difference to these statistics by encouraging and supporting individuals and community groups to make positive lifestyle changes.

PHB offers a range of services in Auckland and Wellington, including the Health Promoting Churches programme, and regularly runs nutrition and smoking cessation training in centres throughout New Zealand.
