Fund annual heart screenings for under 35s
I would like the Government to fund yearly heart screenings for all young people under 35 so they are able to have their hearts checked for any abnormalities, arrhythmia or unknown genetic problems.
My son Spencer aged 31 sadly passed away suddenly from Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome on January 2022. Spencer had no underlying health conditions and was a healthy young man. Every week around 12 under 35s die as a result of a previously undiagnosed heart condition.
This can't keep happening, these otherwise healthy young people are our future and the devastating loss on families/friends is tragic and so painful, something must be done!
