Laura West was just 29 when she suffered a cardiac arrest after a swim last April. She had no previous symptoms and was a fit and healthy medic serving in the Army at 3 Medical Regiment in Preston. Laura's fiancee, Sophie Wilson has launched a fund in her memory to establish heart screening days for young people in Lancaster and Morecambe. The screening will be free for 14 to 35 year olds and help to detect and undiagnosed heart conditions to prevent further deaths.

 Every week in the UK at least 12 apparently fit and healthy young people die of undiagnosed cardiac conditions. 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
