Red look a good fit

CASEY Central Shopping Centre is going red this week in support of the Heart Foundation’s ‘Go Red for Women’ campaign.
Traders at the Narre Warren South shopping complex are encouraging customers to join the cause, which runs until Saturday 31 July.
Casey Central Shopping Centre manager Joseph Galea said that through the centre’s partnership with the Heart Foundation, they want customers to understand heart disease is a very real concern for women, not just men.
Heart disease is the leading cause of death for Australian women, killing four times as many women as breast cancer.
“That is why we are giving our customers the chance to get involved during the Go Red for Women campaign to help bring this health issue to the fore,” he said.
During the week, customers at Casey Central Shopping Centre that make a purchase will be given the chance to get their healthy hearts racing by going into the draw to win a $250 Red Balloon voucher.
Casey Central Pharmacy is also jumping on board with a “Know your Numbers” pressure station which will be set up on Saturday from 10am to 1pm, giving women the opportunity to measure their blood pressure, discuss risk factors for stroke and have a diabetes risk assessment.
