In memory of my baby Daniel who was born sleeping on 22nd August 2021 I am undertaking 34 miles in the month of August. This will be a mile for every week I carried him and his twin sister, Millie. 

I will start this by undertaking a walk on 13th August with some of my amazing colleagues at the Children and Young People's Centre for Justice and partners who have been a great support. I will then complete the rest of the miles finishing on what would have been Daniel's first birthday. 

I am undertaking these miles for SiMBA as a charity that helped my family and me greatly during the first hours and days after losing Daniel. This support, and that of the staff at Princess Royal Maternity Hospital, really helped get us through the most heart breaking and difficult time.

SiMBA responds to the needs of those affected by the loss of a baby. We help families create precious memories with their baby and offer beautiful ways to honour and remember them, now and always. We do this by providing precious Memory Boxes, refurbishing Family Rooms, installing Trees of Tranquillity, and coming together at special remembrance events.Please visit our website at simbacharity.org.uk for information on our services and how your support makes a difference.
