Story

Our Shooting Stars Cycling Challenge will bring together local gyms, businesses and our supporters to cycle a collective 4,745 miles between 9th–15th October. This distance represents the 4,745 babies who sadly die during pregnancy or shortly after birth each year in the UK.

Every mile cycled will help us reach our target and every pound raised will help us support families facing the unimaginable loss of their baby, helping us provide specialist midwifery care, counselling, and a safe, welcoming space for families to spend precious time together and create lasting memories.

Participants will also have the opportunity to leave messages of support for families, remembering babies whose lives shone brightly, but far too briefly - like shooting stars.
