Ben’s Big Bike Ride

Ben Aldred suffered a cardiac arrest in October 2022 whilst preparing to join a Cricket Academy in Adelaide, Australia. He was with family in Perth and luckily through a combination of CPR, swift action and the amazing care given in Joondalup Hospital, Perth, Ben survived and is now back in England, playing Prem Cricket for Bexley CC and preparing to start university in September.

Our family story revolves around our eldest son Ben, who suffered an out of hospital cardiac arrest in October 2022 whilst visiting family in Perth, Australia.
