On the morning of the 11th of March, we had a very exciting visit from one of CRY’s most famous patrons, Pixie Lott. </span></span></b></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Right from the outset, it was clear this was to be an assembly like no other.</span></span></b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px;"><b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Her performance to unsuspecting members of year 11 and the sixth form featured three songs, including her new single ‘Nasty’, a Q and A session, and even an opportunity for interviews. </span></span></b></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In a brief interview after the performance, Lott said ‘As a young person it’s important to spread the news to other young people, because it is a charity that not as many people know about.’ </span></span></b></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px;"><b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lott had the excited students dancing in their seats, and in some cases out of them, whilst bringing an important message to the young men.</span></span></b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px;"><b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sadly, 12 young people under the age of 35 die every week due to cardiac health problems. </span></span></b></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These problems often go unnoticed, which is why is has become such a problem. CRY was set up to change this by raising awareness of cardiac health and facilitating heart screenings, such as those that Ravens Wood host every year. They also go into schools and hold talks and assemblies about why cardiac health is important.</span></span></b></span></div>

Chief Executive of CRY Alison Cox and Paul Daniels, father of Ben Daniels the Ravens Wood student who tragically collapsed on the football pitch and died in hospital due to heart failure, were all present. ‘...CRY raises awareness that just because you’re young and fit and healthy, that if you want to you can be screened for your cardiac health.’</span></b></span><br />

The fact that the young people in the assembly recognised something that can and will most probably affect them at some point with a cheerful attitude will cement an optimistic view of cardiac health in their minds.</span></b></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><b><br /></b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"></span>
</span><br />
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He survived - and recovered - but 12 people under 35 die each week from cardiac problems: that works out as 624 a year.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When we think about sports, we usually think about extremely fit, 6ft 4in speed machines running up and down a turf pitch with limitless power.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But taking part can put unbearable strain on the hearts of young people with undiagnosed cardiac problems.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One woman decided to act. On 3 May 1995, Alison Cox set up Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY), a charity whose aim is to raise awareness of conditions that can lead to sudden cardiac death.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For Ravens Wood School in Bromley, it is not just about statistics.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ben Daniels, an apparently healthy student with no history of heart problems, collapsed in 2011 at the age of 15 while training for his local football club.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He died three days later in hospital.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The whole school was in total shock at the news of his death. That's when they found out about C.R.Y.</span></div>
<span class="cross-head" style="color: white; display: block; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.231em; font-weight: bold; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">Legacy</span><br />
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The charity was very supportive towards Ben's family and the school.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ravens Wood became part of CRY's screening initiative, which provides mobile screening units to sports clubs, schools and other organisations.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The ECG machines (electrocardiograms) work through electrodes being placed around the body producing a graph of the heart's electrical activity.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From this, experts are able to detect signs of cardiac problems.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ravens Wood School is now very involved with CRY, and holds annual screening events and fundraising activities.</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ben's father Paul says increasing the number of young people screened for heart problems is crucial</span></div>
<div style="clear: left; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helmet, Freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 1.077em; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-rendering: auto;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Since Ravens Wood Television's report on C.R.Y. was aired, we hope that we have raised awareness of Sudden Cardiac Death Syndrome.Today we caught up with Chief Executive of C.R.Y, Alison Cox. She had this to say; " I am in no doubt that there will be a terrific response. It was phenomenal."</span></div>
