Families across Courier country are coming together to support the work of a charity dedicated to preventing sudden cardiac death in young people.
Heart screening sessions have been held in both Dundee and Perth and Kinross recently by different families touched by tragedy.
The screenings, run by the charity Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY), were funded by several local families.
Screenings at Abertay
Family and friends of Fife brothers Robert Rowan and Jody Gallagher, set up sessions at Abertay University.
More than 200 students and staff were screened, funded by Robert’s Memorial Fund.
Future heart screenings
“It has been my honour to help raise funds for Peter’s trust fund the #4Pete Trust to pay for heart screenings for young people in the hope that we can limit such heartache visiting other families in the future.
“Our ambition is to develop a sustainable model of funding to continue to offer free heart screenings to all eligible young people across Perth and Kinross.”
