Arc Antenatal Results And Choices

Charity Registration No. 299770

Every year 35,000 parents are told the baby they are expecting may have an abnormality. ARC gives parents information about antenatal testing and supports them and their families when an abnormality is discovered in their much wanted unborn baby. ARC is a lifeline for expectant and bereaved parents and also trains health professionals so they can to do a difficult job better.

My story

When we were told the dreadful news that Charlie, our unborn son had a brain disorder called Holoprosencephaly we were devastated, confused and felt very alone. A midwife gave us a small book written by Antenatal Results and Choices (ARC) who offer support and friendship to those in the terrible situation we found ourselves. My target is equivalent to the cost of running the ARC helpline for two weeks.

On Boxing Day 2004 I ran a 5K race - pictures available at www.huffpuff.co.uk

Simon ran the Reading Half Marathon in March 2005 in an amazingly fast time of 1 hour 26 minutes - not bad for a first attempt. Pictures available at http://homepage.ntlworld.com/s.r.cooper/reading/

And having said never again (!!!) I'm running in the Womens Challenge at Hyde Park on 4th September.

Please dig deep and help us reach our target for Charlie.

Thank you in advance, Debby (and Simon)
