Cardiac Risk in the Young Verified by JustGiving
RCN 1050845 (England & Wales), SC052581 (Scotland)
Each week at least twelve young people in the UK die suddenly as a result of undiagnosed heart conditions. At Cardiac Risk In the Young we aim to save young lives & to help those affected by young sudden cardiac death (YSCD). We do this by providing support, information & screening those affected.

Story

My fiancé, Adam Corsham, died unexpectedly on 15th January 2006 from Sudden Adult Death Syndrome at the age of 26.

Cardiac Risk in the Young ("CRY") works to raise awareness of Sudden Adult Death Syndrome and I would like to help raise funds for this charity in memory of Adam.

Therefore I have signed up to join a 10 day trek in Peru which will involve following the Inca trail to an altitude of 4,400 metres. It will be very challenging physically and mentally and very unlike the nice relaxing holidays I'm used to...... I will be paying for the cost of the trip myself so all the money I raise will go straight to CRY.

So please sponsor me and support a charity whose aim is to raise awareness of unexplained sudden death in young people like Adam.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: CRY will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Many thanks for all your support.

Alison
