Claire Louise Reed, my brothers wife was taken from us suddenly on 9th March 2013 aged just 22, as a result of of SADS (Sudden Adult Death Syndrome), which takes the lives of at least 12 other young adults a week.
 
Thanks to you, we have already raised over £5k in Claire's memory. This is used as core funding for CRY, which funds fast track Coroner/Pathology service, awareness of SADS in the country, fast track screening service and screening clinics, bereavement support and on-going research in young cardiac deaths.
 
We have decided to 'ring fence' funds going forward to arrange a mass screening in the Southern region. Currently the closest clinic to Southampton is St. George Hospital in London. This screening is likely to be a 1-2 day session and will enable people to visit a local establishment (TBA) to go for an ECG and an Echo screening if required.

Tough Mudder will by far be the most brutal, phsyical and mentally chanllenging event I have ever taken part in! It is a 12 mile assault course with 25+ obstacles designed by British special Forces. A few of these obstacles involve being electrocuted!
 
We appreciate we cannot keep asking the same community to dig in their own pockets, so now it is time to rally to all those close to us to help us raise funds for this worthwhile cause. If anyone would like to come down and support us the advance tickets are on sale on the Tough Mudder UK website for £10 which goes to the charity Help for Heroes.
