Helping Young Hearts.
Jay’s Aim was established with the target of reducing the rate of sudden cardiac death among young people here in South-West England.
The British Heart Foundation estimates that 12 people below the age of 35 die every week in the UK from undiagnosed heart conditions, many of them with no prior symptoms. Since 2018 Jay’s Aim has been on a mission to reduce this number; with the help of generous supporters like you, we’re starting to make a difference.
How we make a difference.
Training.
Offering free-to-attend training sessions for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and automated electronic defibrillator (AED).
Defibrillators.
Providing public access defibrillators (PAD) for places in need including sports clubs, schools and community hubs.
Screening.
Funding and encouraging young people to attend cardiac screening sessions and supporting Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY)
