Story
I have chosen The Aaron James Dixon Memorial Fund which is ring fenced within the charity Cardiac Risk in the Young as I believe it is a fantastic cause. The charity helps many individuals and families both locally and nationally. Deborah herself has committed much of her life recently to help many young people across the area and Screening has shown to be extremely effective as a way to prevent sudden cardiac death.
This for me is an extreme challenge of which there had to be an extremely worthy charity for which to raise funds. I am delighted that we have set an ambitious target of £10,000.00, this will fund the Screening of 200 young adults.
For this challenge we need lots of people to get involved and help us along the way, it really is a team effort.
If there is any way you can get involved please do, share this information where you can and if you are in a position to be able to donate towards the target that would be fantastic and we can't thank you enough.
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
