Around 135 young people every year die due to sudden cardiac deaths from inherited heart conditions. In order to continue funding vital lifesaving research in this area Dr. Terence Prendiville, a paediatric cardiologist with CHI Crumlin, and a number of other healthcare professionals associated with the National Centre for Inherited Heart Disease, are walking the 135km Wicklow Way over the course of 24 hours. 1km for each sudden cardiac death in a young person in Ireland a year.
