Next of Kin

When Craig isn't on the T.V in front of us he is busy with various projects.
The one I admire him for the most though is his work with the new charity "Next of Kin".

Eight years ago whilst Craig was out jogging a man collapsed on the road,
and when Craig went to try and help him he dies in his arms
of a heart attack.
In Craig's own words:

"This chap had a heart attack while riding his bike and I tried to help him.
He was having convulsions and his heart stopped.
He died in my arms, and no-one knew wo he was for two days"

After this traumatic experience he has teamed up with Next of Kin,
a charity that encourages people to carry small i.d cards with them
and helps the emergency services contact relatives quickly.
As Craig said on GMTV recently:

"Being well known lets you do things away from acting, and

is worthwile."

Craig helps Next of Kin promote the charity and has appeared in many interviews talking about the charity.
