The event, hosted for the third year in a row by Trailfinders Sports Club in Vallis Way, was sponsored by Tom and Claire’s Fund.

“We’re very grateful to all those who have donated and enabled the screenings to take place,” said Paul Clabburn. “As ever, we are also indebted to Trailfinders for their support and to the CRY team who do such an amazing job.”

Further screenings in Ealing are planned for 2025.

Two days of free CRY heart screenings sponsored by Tom and Claire’s Fund took place at Trailfinders Sports Club in Ealing on Saturday, February 4 and Sunday, February 5.

Ninety-three young people aged 14-35 were screened on the first day and ninety-nine on the second. A total of seven were referred for further tests.

Tony Hill, CRY’s family screening manager, said: “Trailfinders is a lovely venue, everybody is very welcoming and the staff can’t do enough for us, they’re all incredibly helpful. We look forward to returning.”

Ellen Clabburn said: “It’s so impressive to see the CRY team at work, carrying out nearly 200 screenings over two days is a real feat. They pulled out all the stops and we really appreciate that. We are also, of course, very grateful to Trailfinders Club for hosting us once more.”

Tom and Claire’s Fund plan more screenings in Ealing in early 2024. Other family screenings will be held before that throughout the UK. You can book here or pre-register your interest in future screenings here.

“We’ll be back at Trailfinders early in 2023 for a further two days of screening. Keep an eye on our site for further information.”

Screenings and donating to @CRY_UK

This year’s free CRY heart screenings for young people sponsored by Tom and Claire’s Fund were fully booked within 90 minutes.

We didn’t even have time to publicise the event, to be held later this month at Trailfinders in Ealing, before all slots had gone.

If you missed out, or know someone who did, you can complete CRY’s “Screening Interest Form” here. We also plan to hold more screenings in February 2023. Details will appear on this site in December.

The speed at which slots fill shows the strength of demand. It’s not just our screenings, it’s pretty much all CRY family screenings.

And any family screening is only free at point of use because of those who have donated. We’re very grateful to anyone who has ever done so, it’s only through your generosity that the Ealing screenings continue.

When we set out fundraising for CRY many years ago, the most efficient way to donate was via Justgiving. Now, with the improvements to CRY’s website, that’s changed and it’s better to do so here on Tom and Claire’s CRY memorial page. We will therefore be closing our Justgiving page at the end of the year.

Free @CRY_UK heart screenings for young people to resume in #Ealing

On the eve of the anniversary of Tom’s death aged 14 from an undiagnosed heart condition, we are delighted to say that free Cardiac Risk in the Young screenings , sponsored by Tom and Claire’s Fund, will begin again in Ealing.

You can register here: https://www.testmyheart.org.uk/

We are at a new venue, Trailfinders Sports Club, and the heart screenings will take place on Sunday, November 7. They are open to all aged between 14-35. If you have any questions, please contact CRY, not the club.

Paul Clabburn said: “The screenings are a vital part of Tom’s legacy and we are so pleased that they can restart after being halted by the pandemic. We are incredibly grateful to Trailfinders for making their facilities available and to all those who have continued to donate to the Fund. We couldn’t do it without you.”
