Preventing young sudden cardiac deaths through awareness, screening and research, and supporting affected families.

Fraser Vaughan

“In loving memory of Fraser Vaughan from Laxey, Isle of Man who tragically died on 30/12/19 at the age of 27 from sudden cardiac death.

This memorial fund has been set up by the family to help CRY (Cardiac Risk in the Young) reduce the frequency of young sudden cardiac death through supporting CRY’s research programme. The aim is to fund research into the causes and prevention of young sudden cardiac death.

Sadly Fraser passed away despite previously normal heart screenings and thus just shows the amount we still have to learn about the heart conditions which cause sudden cardiac death. For this reason his family would like to show particular support to the research efforts by CRY with this fund.

Unbelievably 12 young people die every week in the UK from sudden cardiac death. Please help us prevent further tragedies by making donations and raising money in Fraser’s name. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him.”

Yes, I would like to claim Gift Aid

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Cardiac Risk in the Young to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that Cardiac Risk in the Young will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When Cardiac Risk in the Young receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.
