Story

I’m running the marathon this year for Emily’s Star which is a charity that helps premature babies and babies with life threatening illnesses with clothes, blankets etc. My nephew Oslo was helped by the kind people at Emily’s Star, and I would like to help them continue with the amazing work they do. Please donate whatever you can for this amazing cause, I and everyone at Emily’s star greatly appreciate it

Emily’s star Objectives

1) To grant wishes to families who have a child or children with any life limiting or life threatening illness & are supported by a Children with Complex needs nursing team within Milton Keynes
Our wishes are to help families make memories & we carry this out in various ways.

2) To raise awareness of Trisomy 18 also known as Edwards Syndrome, the UK's second most common syndrome.
We also wish to increase the use of the wording "life limiting" when a Trisomy 18 diagnosis is given instead of "incompatible with life"

3) To provide neonatal boxes to local neonatal units, which include items for both mum and premature or underweight babies. These boxes are called "Emily's gift"
