Help local teenager raise funds for free screenings
A teenager is setting out to climb the three highest peaks in the Yorkshire Dales to help raise money for free heart screenings for young people in Ealing. Helen, who describes herself as "possibly one of the laziest people you are ever likely to meet", will climb Pen-y-ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough, in memory of Tom, a close family friend and resident of Northfields. He died in 2007 aged 14 from an undiagnosed cardiac condition and Helen has actively supported CRY ever since.
CRY estimate that 12 young people aged between 14-35 die each week from undiagnosed heart conditions.
