Thousands more patients at risk of deadly inherited heart conditions are to be screened each year following the roll out of a £1.5m genetic testing service by the family of the late Sir David Frost and the British Heart Foundation (BHF).
The service here in Oxford - established by Prof Hugh Watkins – has received funding to support two new posts, allowing the team to see over 200 more people a year.
The Miles Frost Fund, created in memory of Sir David’s eldest son, Miles, has hit its £1.5 million fundraising target, just two years after it launched.
