Chief Executive - John Munro

[email protected] For over 40 years John has worked in diverse and challenging environments, the last 20 in the charity sector.

"The facilities at the Wessex Cardiac Centre really are second to none. People in the Wessex region have access to some of the best equipment and care in the world. Now it’s time to cut off the problem at the source; working to stop people from contracting heart disease in the first place."
