Keeping young hearts healthy
Raising funds to cover the cost of holding ECG screenings for young people (aged 14-35) in the Southend area.
The Carli Lansley Foundation was establised in 2018 following the tragic passing of Carli from Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome (SADS) on 1st June 2017.
The aims of our charity are three-fold:
- 1
To provide free ECG screenings to young people (aged 14-35) to help detect undiagnosed heart conditions. All our screening days are administered and managed by the national charity, Cardiac Risk In The Young (CRY). As at February 2025, we have held 27 screening days. Over 2,400 young people have been checked and 120 have needed a further referral based on their ECG. Details of all upcoming screening days can be located under the ‘Our Events’ tab on our website
- 2We have installed 20 defibrillators. 6 were solely funded by our charity (and include Eastwood Academy, Balmoral Centre and Badgers Den). A further 14 were installed in a joint initiative with 2 local rotary clubs (Thorpe Bay and Leigh on Sea) and include 8 along Southend Seafront
- 3We host FREE CPR/defib sessions to local residents to give them the confidence to give CPR, and use a defibrillator correctly/safely, in the event they will be called upon to perform either. Details of all upcoming training sessions can be located under the ‘Our Events’ tab on our website
