Story

In 2008 Mathew Blease Aged 13 Passed Away Suddenly. This Year He Would Of Been Celebrating His 18th Birthday. A Post Mortem Showed That Mathew Died Of Myocarditis Which Is Inflammation Of The Heart Muscle.

 In July I Will Be Walking With Carleanne Just Under 5 Miles Over 7 Bridges That Cross The Thames And That Include Great Views Of At Least 12 Of London's Famous Landmarks, Representing The 12 Young Sudden Cardiac Deaths That Occur Each Week In The UK.

 These Landmarks Include County Hall, The Houses Of Parliament, The London Eye, Somerset House, St Paul's Cathedral, Royal Festival Hall, The Tate Modern, Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, Southwark Cathedral, The Tower of London, City Hall and HMS Belfast

I know That Mat Is Missed Hugely By His Friends And Family.

Mats Death Certainly Opened A Few Peoples Eyes To See That Cardiac Problems Affect People Of All Ages, Shapes And Sizes. I Personally Don't Think That Enough Is Done To Make Sure That Young People Are Educated And Informed About This, And That's Why I'm Doing This Walk And Will Continue To Support The Fantastic Work That CRY Do.
