The Ennis CDP Primary Health Care Programme for Travellers insists that these are the main cause of death amongst traveller women.

Together with the Irish Heart Foundation, it's developed an information flyer on heart health that's specifically for Traveller women. 

The launch of the leaflet coincides with Lent, a time which Coordinator Dr Siobhan O'Connor believes is a good time for people to make lifestyle changes.
