Improve early detection of heart conditions
On Sunday 2nd October 2022 I’ll be running the London Marathon and hoping to raise some much needed funds for the wonderful work Tiny Tickers do.
Tiny Tickers helps babies with congenital heart disease (CHD), their families and the health professionals who look after them. Tiny Tickers want every baby with a serious heart condition to have the best chance of survival and quality of life.
A baby is born with a serious heart condition every 2 hrs in the UK and despite CHD being one of the biggest killers of infants in the UK, only around half of congenital heart defects are picked up during routine prenatal scanning.
