A K A Day

Cardiac screening is so vital in the prevention of young sudden cardiac death and we are so grateful to our CRY supporters who fundraise to host a cardiac screening #12aweek #testmyheart

Thanks to our supporters and families, we held 32 screening days in June with 2,910 young people screened. CRY's screening events are mostly funded by CRY supporters often in memory of someone who has died from a sudden cardiac death.

What if AI could detect a fatal heart condition before it strikes? That's exactly what CRY is working to make possible — for every young person, everywhere. Our AI Cardiac Screening and Research Project will reduce costs, widen access, and build screening technology that gets smarter over time. Your donation will help us make this a reality faster. sbrew.link/Hhr8Pk6P

12 young people die every week in the UK from undiagnosed heart conditions. That's over 600 young people every year — and most of them had no idea anything was wrong. Sudden cardiac death in the young is not rare. Cardiac screening can change that. #12AWeek #HeartMonth

Our CEO Dr Steven Cox has shared his response to the Government's deeply disappointing reply to the petition for cardiac screening from age 14. To our CRY families and community — we hear your frustration. We share it. The Government continues to rely on outdated arguments while 12 young people lose their lives every week. This month, CRY will publish the largest ever study of its kind — and the evidence speaks for itself. Help us reach 100,000 signatures. Help us get this debated in Parliament.
