Cardiovascular Disease Statistics 2026

2026 Compendium

Our annual compendium presents statistics for journalists, healthcare professionals, researchers and the general public. 
 

We compile the UK's most comprehensive statistics on cardiovascular disease.

We use health statistics in our press releases, policy statements, heart health resources and throughout our own website, and many of them are from our statistics compendium.

The pdf version brings the tables from all five chapters together in one document, along with a glossary of terms which are used in the compendium.
