Story

This December, we challenge you to “23” for Elspeth Brake. Between 1 - 31 December, participate in your own “23” challenge to raise funds for Cots for Tots  

Lee & Jen welcomed Elspeth in to the world on Friday 15th October 2021, born at just 23 weeks.

Following a brief message with Lee, he kindly sent the following - “Elspeth was born at just 23 weeks and without the brilliance, dedication and determination of the team at NICU St Michaels, she wouldn’t be here today. The nurses, doctors and consultants are incredible and we owe them so much. Without them we would not have experienced the ultimate joy of holding our little daughter in our arms”. 

Whilst Lee and Jen spend time @ St. Michaels NICU, Bristol, by Elspeth side,  let’s show them our support by coming together to raise some well needed funding for Cots for Tots. The Brakes have a humongous team of medics with them daily, who are doing everything they can to help. Now it’s our turn. 

Challenge “23” is entirely up to you. Some ideas below. Don’t forget to share what your challenge is are to motivate others taking part. 

23000 steps a day. 

2.3km Swim. 

2.3 mile walk. 

23km Run. 

23 hour bake off. 

23 mile Bike. 

23 mile Hike. 

Thank you for your contribution & support. We are here with you Lee, Jen & Elspeth.
