Awareness

Raising awareness of CRY and its objectives can be as easy as a click of a button, printing or ordering posters to display, liking or sharing a post on our social media pages and sharing Youtube videos CRY have produced all helps to raise awareness and save young lives. Through raising awareness of these conditions, the public, medical and sporting communities will be alerted to the symptoms that can lead to a young sudden cardiac death, as well as the potential risks that these conditions carry for an asymptomatic population.

Current Campaigns

CRY is urging MPs to support the development of a National Strategy for the Prevention of Young Sudden Cardiac Death to help save young lives.

At least 12 young sudden cardiac deaths happen every week in the UK – but our Government doesn’t understand either the true figure or the impact of such a loss. That’s because it is being incorrectly advised by the very body ministers rely upon – the UK National Screening Committee (UK NSC).

Poster Campaign

During CRY’s 2019 Raising Awareness Week, we want to encourage all of our supporters to help raise awareness in their local communities, sports clubs, social clubs, schools and community notice boards by participating in our new poster campaign.

Why Do I Support CRY

We want to hear what CRY means to you, and why you support the charity so we can share across our social media. We have created this campaign to personify the media’s reporting on young sudden cardiac deaths, to tell the stories of the impact of Young Sudden Cardiac Death (YSCD), and to put faces to the statistic of 12 young sudden cardiac deaths each week in the UK.

#12AWeek Campaign

Cardiac screening will save young lives. 12 people aged 35 and under die suddenly from heart conditions in the UK every week.
