Everton in the Community will be hosting a life-saving heart screening event on Saturday 14 October at The People’s Hub on Spellow Lane, from 9am–5pm.
Funding provided from Medicash enables the Club’s official charity to work in partnership with the Vital Signs Foundation (VSF), to deliver sudden cardiac arrest screening for young people aged 15-35.
Every week in the UK, 12 apparently young and healthy young people die as a result of sudden cardiac arrest. However, attending a heart screening event to undertake a simple, non-invasive 10-minute test can identify a young person who might be at risk.
