Sadly, 12 people under 35 are lost to sudden cardiac death in the UK each week. We need your support to fund the lifesaving research that will help put a stop to this tragic reality.

This September, we've joined forces with ITN Business to bring you a news-style programme on sudden cardiac death, presented by former BBC Breakfast presenter Louise Minchin.

You can see the full programme on World Heart Day on 29 September.
