“In 2013 my husband quite suddenly and publicly died of a heart attack. This highlighted to me the need for greater access to Defibrillators.

Stuart was much loved and respected by the community and it was entirely fitting that something positive should result from his passing.

It is with grateful thanks to fund-raising efforts by the families and friends who knew my husband, that START-A-HEART24:7 is now a real charity and we are already making a difference.

If you have been affected by the loss of someone very close to you, we can help you to turn some of the pain of grief into something positive. Will you help us to help the next victim of a cardiac arrest?”
