Story
Every week in the UK at least 12 apparently fit and healthy young people die of undiagnosed cardiac conditions. My family have been supported by CRY since the death of my brother Nick in 1998 when he was only 16 years old - ever since this time we have helped promote the amazing work that CRY does in raising awareness amidst communities and fundraising to support screening opportunities. This year is the 45th year of the Great North Run and it is the largest Half Marathon in the world.. it would also have been Nick's 45th birthday later this year, so a fitting tribute in his memory. With your donation, CRY can reduce the frequency of young sudden cardiac death (YSCD) by working with cardiologists and family doctors to establish good practice and appropriate screening facilities to promote and protect the cardiac health of our young. By supporting CRY you will help save young lives from these potentially fatal cardiac conditions. See how your support can help by visiting www.c-r-y.org.uk.
