Our 2024 national survey is ending soon - if you have cardiomyopathy, or care for someone who does, there is still time to have your say.
What is cardiomyopathy?
Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle: 'cardio’ means heart, ‘myo’ means muscle and ‘pathy’ means disease.
It isn’t a single condition, but a group of conditions that affect the structure of the heart and reduce its ability to pump blood around the body. Around 1 in 250 people in the UK are affected.
