Congenital Heart Disease Support

Wednesday, August 09, 2006

My name is Paul Youngson, I have been running a charity fundraising blog to raise money for a congenital heart disease support group for a few months now, you can see it here.

I have realised that there does not seem to be any definitive list on the internet anywhere of congenital heart disease support groups. There are some good partial ones which I have used to create this list but the idea is to have every CHD support group listed here.

If you know of a group that is not listed here then please leave a comment at the bottom of the post or email me through my profile to let me know. Thanks.
