Every year on September 19th, we come together for Aortic Dissection Awareness Day to highlight this life-threatening condition, which impacts thousands of lives globally. This annual event seeks to educate the public and healthcare community about aortic dissection, fostering greater understanding and support for those affected.
We are inviting everyone to help amplify our message. Share our awareness video to spread knowledge about the risks and the critical importance of early detection. By working together, we can save lives and inspire change
Join Us for Aortic Dissection Awareness Day 2026
Join us online at 5pm BST for our Aortic Dissection Awareness Day webinar, bringing patients, families and the aortic community together.
We will announce the successful recipient of our next round of Aortic Nurse Funding and explain why specialist aortic nursing matters for people affected by aortic dissection.
We also want to hear from you. We will be answering your questions and inviting your input on what best practice should look like for patients and families, helping to shape how specialist aortic care develops.
Register now and join us on the 19th September.
