Story

Starting at the end of January 2019 and for every month of 2019 I will run a half marathon per month. However, in October 2019 I plan to run a marathon instead of the half marathon. So, 11 half marathons and a marathon over the course of the year - find out more about why I’m doing this by reading on......

Due to pregnancy complications our youngest daughter, Beatrix arrived almost 3 months early. In total she spent 19 days in intensive care, 40 days on the high dependency unit and 7 days in special care at the Neonatal unit at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford. The team on the unit we’re just outstanding. SSNAP are a charity that provide amazing support to the unit. All funds that go to SSNAP will help other families like ours during what is a very stressful time in any family’s life. Funds to SSNAP will also help to fund research to further improve care for other babies like Beatrix who are either born too early or too sick to go straight home with their families.

RCN 1146622
In the UK, 1 in 10 babies need specialist care at birth. SSNAP supports sick & premature babies and their families in the Newborn Care Unit at the John Radcliffe Hospital. Imagine your newborn baby needing specialist care at birth. Instead of those very special days getting to know your baby as a family, you’re catapulted into an unfamiliar world of incubators, wires, medical tests and interventions. While your baby has specialist treatment, we provide emotional and practical support to help you through the trauma & upheaval. We’re there to help families cope, and provide state-of-the-art medical equipment and nursing expertise that could save babies lives.
