Bliss is the leading UK charity for babies born premature or sick. We rely on donations to fund our work but with one baby admitted to neonatal care every five minutes we don’t have the resources to reach every baby who needs us. Your donation can help Bliss ensure every baby gets the best care.

Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am running the Bupa Great North Run ( 13.1 miles I hasten to add) on 5th October in aid of Bliss the premature and sick baby charity. This image of Nicole breathing in rhythm to the hiss of a ventilator still haunts me but I also know this equipement saved her life.  

Bliss first came to our attention in the early days of Nicole's stay on the neonatal unit. Their role as advocate for babies and parents helped us understand the needs of our baby and the neonatal world. For anyone who experiences giving birth to a premature or sick baby, this charity is worth its weight in gold.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: BLISS gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
