My name is Roisin. Within my community of Monagea in 2011, Sudden Cardiac Death took two young people from us. Darra was 15 and Niamh aged 20 within a couple of months of each other. Niamh was my neighbour and friend and her loss influenced me to take a career path in way that I can help people who need support in their lives. When I saw CRY Ireland were setting up a Helpline, I knew it was something I’d be very interested to be involved in. The helpline is there to help individuals who have been affected by SCD no matter how close or far apart you were from them.
I have been volunteering with CRY since May 2021 and I have had the pleasure to meet such wonderful, caring people who want to give back to people struggling or going through a similar situation.
