Jamie Carragher has spoken of his hopes for the Oliver King Foundation after a 'refreshing' meeting with the Education Secretary.
Jamie and Mark King from the Oliver King Foundation meet with Nadhim Zahawi on Thursday, March 17 to discuss how they would ensure every school in the country has a life-saving defibrillator. The Oliver King Foundation was founded in 2012 after Mark's son Oliver died during a swimming race at school.
Oliver was just 12 when he died from Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome, a hidden heart condition which kills 12 young people a week. Oliver's parents have been campaigning for a change in the law to make defibrillators mandatory in all schools, with more than 60 lives being saved because of the charity's work so far.
