Story

<p>Thank you so much for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.</p> <p>Sadly our son Luke was stillborn at 30 weeks in June 09 and we want to make a difference from his short little life.</p> <p>Since we set this page up just over a year ago we have been so overwhelmed with all the support we have received and been shown.</p> <p>So so much goodness has come from Luke's name and we are very proud.</p> <p>The very last challenge of our fundraising efforts is me - running the London Marathon. Many of you won't understand my excitment in doing this - but for me it is five years in the making and for someone who is very impatient it is the longest ever I have had to wait!</p> <p>After deferring last year as I was pregnant with Oscar it is with great pleasure I ask you to sponsor me for our last fundraising effort.</p> <p>Gav and I will never stop doing things in Lukes name and Millie has already announced she too will run for him one day! So watch this space!!!!!</p> <p>Thank you, thank you for helping us smash our target and raise money for this ever so important charity.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.
