Eileen's Personal 5K
Eileen Carroll is raising money for St Andrew's First Aid
In memory of Jack Littman
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
47 years ago my Dad, Jack Littman, had a heart attack aged 50 and died at the Cosmo cinema, now the GFT, in Glasgow’s city centre.
This tragedy could have been avoided had there been a defibrillator on the premises. To this day, the cinema still doesn’t have one.
I’m setting out to change that.
I’m running 5K three times a week during the month of October to raise £1,000 for St Andrews First Aid. In turn, the charity will use this money to install a defibrillator at the GFT and train staff to use it, increasing the chances of a similar tragedy being avoided in the future.
Without immediate treatment, 90-95% of cardiac arrests prove fatal. Let’s change that!
I’d love if you helped me reach my target, donating whatever you can.
