Joshan Carr

Joshan Carr

Josh was a charismatic and remarkable 21 year old young man who loved the outdoors, his friends, his family and his dogs. He lived life with joy, laughter and kindness. He taught us all so much about what really matters in life, to live life to the fullest whatever we are doing.

In his second year at Liverpool University, Josh passed away during a camping trip with friends in the Lake District.  It was a beautiful, sunny spring day and the boys decided to go for a cold water dip in shallow water in the morning after breakfast. Sadly, cold water shock caused sudden cardiac arrest which took Josh from us far too early.

Whilst we still find it almost impossible to talk about our boy in the past tense, we are determined to honour his memory by raising money for cardiac testing for young people.

This memorial fund has been set up by the family to help CRY (Cardiac Risk in the Young) raise awareness of young sudden cardiac death, support those affected, support CRY’s screening programme and fund research and pathology.

Tell me more »

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.
