To the individuals who decided to steal from our charity stall at the car boot sale today: just how low can you get?

Every single weekend, our dedicated volunteers give up their own time, load up their cars, and stand out in the elements to sell items.

​We don't do this for fun. We do this to fund FREE, life-saving heart screenings for 14 to 35-year-olds.

​Sadly, today we were the victim of multiple thefts. Let’s be crystal clear: you didn't just steal a second-hand item from a table. You stole directly from a fund designed to stop young people from dying of undiagnosed heart conditions. You stole from your own community.

​If this post somehow reaches you, and you possess even a single ounce of guilt or human decency regarding what you did today, you can anonymously pay for what you took by donating at the link below.
​👉 https://www.c-r-y.org.uk/tom-petley/ #:~:text=This%20memorial%20fund%20has%20been,people%20within%20the%20local%20community

​To our genuine, wonderful supporters: please SHARE this post.

We are absolutely gutted, but we will not let a few selfish individuals stop us from doing the vital work we do. 💔

Tom Petley This memorial fund has been set up by the family to help CRY (Cardiac Risk in the Young) reduce the frequency of young sudden cardiac death through supporting CRY’s screening programme.The aim is to fund the screening of young people within the local community.
