In this milestone 50th episode, host Kamran Saleem sits down for an exclusive series of conversations with members of the British Heart Foundation (BHF) Asian Business Board.
South Asian communities in the UK face up to 50% to double the risk of coronary heart disease compared to the wider population. For Kamran, this issue hits close to home—both of his parents have survived major heart conditions, undergoing life-saving coronary artery bypass surgery and stent procedures.
In this episode, we explore how 60+ years of British Heart Foundation research, global medical innovations (from bypass operations and stents to public policy changes like smoking bans and CPR education), and community-led action are transforming cardiovascular health. Learn how the BHF Asian Business Board—founded by Amina Hussain following her baby son’s open-heart surgery—is bringing business leaders together to break cultural health stigmas, fund groundbreaking research, and save lives.
