An event was held at the Gtech Community Stadium to celebrate the two-year anniversary of the initiative.
Partners involved in Heart of West London (HoWL) – Brentford FC Community Sports Trust, Royal Brompton and Harefield Hospitals Charity, Cardiac Risk in the Young, Resuscitation Council UK and A-K-A Day – were among the 80 attendees present.
Recently we also marked the six-year anniversary of the tragic loss of our former technical director, Robert Rowan who passed away aged 28 in November 2018 after suffering a fatal cardiomyopathy episode.
Brentford FC director, Nity Raj said: “Heart of West London started out two years ago after our experiences as a club showed that cardiac health affects everyone. We continue to put our efforts into raising awareness of this… and encouraging young fans and employees to get a screening to detect any heart problems that may go unnoticed.
