This October I'll be running the Oxford Half Marathon to raise money for SSNAP, a charity that means a great deal to my family.

Premature birth has touched our lives personally. My own children were born prematurely, and my brother and his wife faced an even more challenging journey when their son, Humphrey, was born early. Humphrey spent his first year in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), and during that incredibly difficult time, SSNAP provided invaluable support to our family.

Seeing first-hand the difference SSNAP made inspired me to take on this challenge. Every mile I run is a thank you for the care they provide to families facing the uncertainty and emotional strain of having a baby in neonatal care.

If you're able to donate, no matter how big or small, you'll be helping SSNAP continue supporting families when they need it most. Thank you for your generosity and encouragement—it means a huge amount.
