IN 2023 ANDREW OSBORNE SUCCESSFULLY ROWED 3000 MILES SOLO ACROSS THE ATLANTIC OCEAN TO RAISE FUNDS FOR CARDIAC RISK IN THE YOUNG
TO TEST CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE FOR UNDIAGNOSED HEART CONDITIONS
SINCE THEN ANDREW HAS BEEN TOURING THE UK WITH HIS INSPIRATIONAL TALK AND FILM ABOUT HIS ENDEAVOUR.
ANDREW’S ATLANTIC CAMPAIGN NOT ONLY TESTED THE LIMITS OF RESILIENCE BUT ALSO HIGHLIGHTED HOW TO PERSEVERE UNDER PRESSURE.
IN HIS TALKS, HE SHARES HOW THAT SAME PERSEVERANCE CAN DRIVE SUCCESS IN BUSINESS AND PERSONAL GOALS.
SO FAR ANDREW HAS SPOKEN TO THOUSANDS PEOPLE ACROSS MANY TALKS, RANGING FROM LARGE CORPORATE CONFERENCES TO PRIVATE DINNERS TO VILLAGE HALL EVENTS.
Amy Osborne died in her sleep five years ago from an undiagnosed heart condition at the age of 25. She became one of the 12 young people who die each week in the UK from this cause. Like Amy, 80% don’t experience any symptoms. Amy’s memorial fund set up by Andrew’s family at the charity CRY (Cardiac Risk in the Young) has so far raised enough money to pay for nearly 1000 children and young adults to be screened as well as contribute funds towards research and raise awareness to help save lives.
ABOUT ROW FOR AMY
Andrew raised around £200,000 for the fund through the Row for Amy campaign to test many more children and young adults across the UK.
Subsequently, Andrew was honoured to be one of the top three finalists selected from 14,000 overall entries for the JustGiving Endurance Fundraiser of the Year Award.
