About this cause

Every week in the UK 12 young people die suddenly from an undiagnosed heart condition. On 12th February 2012 our 15-year-old son Jack Thomas became one of those 12 young people. Jack was a fit and healthy boy who had represented Wales all across Europe in Taekwondo. Jack was an A* student and had been successful in gaining a scholarship at Cardiff Sixth Form College Jack’s death came as a complete shock to us, as Jack had never been ill. To this day we still have had no answers to why our son fell alseep All our local leisure centres have been provided with a defibrillator, but not our local schools. It is because of this I have set up Jack’s Appeal, which has been backed by The South Wales Argus and Welsh Hearts. The aim of Jack’s Appeal is to provide schools with defibrillators
