Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

As a total non-runner, entering the London Marathon was a huge challenge and commitment for me and hopefully by April 26th my training will have been enough to complete the course still standing! 

The London Marathon is the single biggest charity raising event in the world and the charity I have chosen to support is Bliss, the UK's only special care baby charity.  My sister Sally lost her little boy, Jack, 14 years ago when he was born 12 weeks premature and prematurity is far more common than most people think.  One in eight of all newborns in the UK needs specialist care; yet all too often, the right support just isn't there. 

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!

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.
