Clondegad GAA in conjunction with the Dillion Quirke Foundation have arranged a cardiac screening in Ballynacally National School. This fantastic service will be taking place tomorrow for children who have signed up between the ages of 12-18 years of age.
"Cardiac screening can help identify underlying heart conditions that can lead to Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS)" ."Incidents of Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS) are higher in Ireland than many other European countries: up to 100 young people in Ireland die each year from SADS".
The club would like to thank the Dillon Quirke Foundation and the fantastic work they are carrying out all over the country.
If anyone would like to contribute to help raise funds for the Dillon Quirke Foundation to continue carrying out these vital services, you can do so by donating to their Go Fund Me. https://www.gofundme.com/f/d4vp55-dillon-quirke-foundation
