We are delighted to welcome Tommy Fegan as a Volunteer to the CRY Ireland Team. Tommy who has experienced firsthand the impact SADS can have on a family as he tragically lost his son Kevin aged 24 in 2010, will attend presentations, meetings and events nationwide and represent CRY Ireland as an official spokesperson.
Over the coming months at events around the country you will get the chance to meet Tommy who has come on board, as a volunteer, to help us to raise awareness of CRY Ireland and the work we do to help those affected by SADS ( Sudden Adult Death Syndrome).
