HUNDREDS of teenagers will be tested for heart conditions thanks to ยฃ22,000 raised in the name of a 17-year-old girl who died suddenly in her sleep.
Maddy Campbellโs family were left heartbroken after the teenagerโs sudden death when she did not wake up on the morning of September 14, 2021.
Examinations carried out following her death revealed she had a condition called hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, which caused her heart to fail.
Since her death, her family have pushed to raise funds for Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY), hoping to allow the charity to hold heart screening days at schools across the area.
On the remarkable support shown in Maddyโs name, Kelly added: โSheโd be so shocked. She was quite modest, she would never believe sheโd have as much of an impact as she has had.
โShe was well-liked, it has been lovely hearing stories about her from all sorts of people, stories I probably wouldnโt have otherwise heard.โ
