Every week 12 fit and healthy, young people die from an undiagnosed heart condition, also known as Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome (S.A.D.S).

S.A.D.S strikes down hundreds of young people – many of whom were involved in sport and physical exercise – at the prime of their lives. Sport & physical exercise does not cause this problem - but can exacerbate an existing undiagnosed condition and the high risk group is the young.

If someone has collapsed and is unconscious, they need CPR and defibrillator shocks within 8 minutes for the best chance of survival.

Sign our petition and help us to get 10 defibrillators in Leicester to reduce this outrageous number and help save lives!
