The British Polio Fellowship (BPF) is a registered charity with around 9000 members. We were one of the first organisations of disabled people and have acted as a voice for people who have had polio for over half a century. We are democratically-run and governed by our Management Council, the majority of whom are people who have had polio themselves.

Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life; is this true?
A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it... don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap.
