Each week it is estimated that 12 young people die of Sudden Adult Death Syndrome. Find out more information about The Foundation here: www.theoliverkingfoundation.co.uk/.

We call on the Government to take action, to screen active young people aged between 12-35, we may be able to detect SADS before it is too late. We also call on the Government to ensure that all public buildings have adequate amount of defibrillators on site, by 2017, and staff have the appropriate training.
