My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've made the foolhardy commitment to cycle the 325 miles from London to Paris (excluding the wet bit in the middle, which will be done by ferry....) between 9-13 May in support of the National Maternity Support Foundation.  This is a great charity, directed at assisting in research into stillbirth and neonatal death and provision of services and support to women during pregnancy and childbirth.  It was founded by a friend's sister after she and her husband lost their first child during childbirth.

So PLEASE dig deep in those pockets and make those sore legs of mine worthwhile! 

Thnx so much for your support!!

Michael   :-)

My charity

National Maternity Support Foundation

National Maternity Support Foundation

Charity Registration No. 1118833

The National Maternity Support Foundation (NMSF) was set up following the tragic stillbirth of Jake Canter due to the nearest hospital maternity unit being closed. Our founding principles are to take a 'proactive educative approach' to maternity care occupying the 'sensible middle ground' of public opinion. Working in partnership with the Royal College of Midwives, the NMSF’s four key objectives are as follows:- 1. Campaign to help keep maternity services available, accessible, safe and well resourced 2. Ensure that prospective parents have all the information needed to make informed decisions 3. Being a resource for others to obtain information and support 4. Support and promote, in partnership with other organisations, further research into stillbirth and neonatal death
