1 in 100
young individuals screened by CRY have been detected with a condition that requires monitoring and could cause a problem in later life.
Every week in the UK, at least 12 young people die from undiagnosed heart conditions. Since its formation in 1995, Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY) has been dedicated to reducing the frequency of young sudden cardiac death (YSCD).
In 2009, CRY’s groundbreaking research revealed that the true incidence of YSCD is 12 young people aged 35 and under every week, when CRY was founded the incidence was thought to be one per week. CRY’s efforts have led to a deeper understanding of these conditions, improved patient care, and the development of a cardiac screening program aimed at preventing young lives from being part of this tragic statistic.
Your donation to CRY today will support our vital screening and research programmes, enabling us to offer more screening appointments and fund research fellows specialising in cardiology. Together, we can save young lives.
Every young person should have the choice.
Preventing young sudden cardiac deaths through awareness, screening and research, and supporting affected families.
