The Irish Heart Foundation is calling on the nation to buy a heart for €2 on Happy Heart Weekend from May 14 to 16 to help save more lives. Every year an estimated 5,000 people die from sudden cardiac arrest in Ireland – that’s 13 lives lost every day.
For every €25 raised through this year’s Happy Heart Weekend campaign, the Irish Heart Foundation will train another CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation ) lifesaver. For more information or to make a donation see www.happyheartweekend.ie
