Andrew Carter mile raises more than £700 for @CRY_UK #Ealing

Andrew Carter Memorial Mile 2018

About 60 runners took part in the Andrew Carter Memorial Mile on Saturday, September 1, raising more than £700 for Tom and Claire’s Fund and Cardiac Risk in the Young.

The event is held in memory of Andrew, who collapsed from a cardiac arrest during the Ealing Half Marathon in 2014. He died on October 1, 2014. The money raised supports heart screenings in Ealing sponsored by Tom and Claire’s Fund.

Sandra Courtney, one of the Ealing Half Marathon organisers, said: “It was a lovely day and it was great to raise such a large total again.”

Paul Clabburn said: “We are very grateful to all those who ran and to Andrew’s parents. Each year, those who take part play a significant role in ensuring that free CRY screenings can continue.”

This year’s screenings are due to take place in November.

CRY screened 98 young people for undiagnosed heart conditions in Ealing on Sunday, November 5.

Two people were referred for further investigation and one will have a repeat test in a year’s time.

The free screenings for 14-35-year-olds, sponsored by Tom and Claire’s fund, took place at the Florence Road surgery and Ellen Clabburn said: “We’d like to thank all those who have raised the funds which make the event possible.

“Because of people’s generosity, the Fund has enabled CRY to screen more than 200 people a year since 2009, over 2,600 in total.

“We appreciate that there are lots of other causes but we’d ask people to consider supporting the Fund. The screenings are always over-subscribed and, with growing awareness of the complexity of cardiac conditions in the young, there is a need and demand for such events.

“We’re also very grateful to the CRY team for their professionalism and care on the day and to Dr David Evans and his team for yet again giving us a base for the screenings.”

There will be further screenings in Ealing in 2018.
