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

I am running in the BUPA London 10k run on the 25th May and I am asking for your sponsor money in memory of my fiance Ryan Darby who died of an acute heart attack in bed in Bangkok on Sunday 3rd September 2006.

Ryan was a fit and well 27 year old, if Ryan had been screened maybe his undiagnosed heart condition could have been picked up and he would be here today enjoying life with me and his now 5 year old son.

Since Ryan's death CRY have been fantastic and they are doing great work setting up screenings for young people over the UK to prevent the loss of other young lives.

Thank you for your support.
