News:

 Earlier this year the DodgyTickers programme held its first ever annual - Ballon d’Or - awards ceremony in east London. The DodgyTickers programme has been running for over a decade now and supports people living with cardiovascular disease, or other chronic health conditions or anyone over the age of 50. All the participants in the programme are between 40-80 years old and prove to be an inspirational every day to others both within and outside the programme as ambassadors and these inaugural awards are designed to recognise the amazing individuals within the programme. The awards were not about exercise ability or about being the fittest, but more about celebrating inspirational personal qualities such as versatility, resilience, being a role model to others, displaying core values such as respect & kindness, etc. Voting was all done by peers so no judges were involved and the night was a huge success!
