Story

🏃‍♂️ Giles runs miles for Bliss 🏃‍♂️

I am thrilled to announce that I will be participating in the London Marathon, all in support of the incredible charity, Bliss. As I take on this challenging journey, I am not just running for personal achievement, but also to make a meaningful impact on the lives of premature and sick babies.

About Me:
I'm passionate individual with a deep commitment to making a difference in the world. I am by no means a runner, but I do like to push myself out of my comfort zone. This time, I'm channeling that energy into something extraordinary – supporting the amazing work that Bliss does for families and babies facing the challenges of premature birth.

Why Bliss:
Bliss holds a special place in my heart as they tirelessly strive to provide support, care, and resources for babies born too soon or too sick. The statistics are staggering, with over 60,000 premature births in the UK each year. Bliss works tirelessly to improve neonatal care, offering emotional and practical assistance to families during their most challenging times.

My Goal:
My goal for the London Marathon is not just to cross the finish line but to raise awareness and funds for Bliss. The emotional and financial burdens on families with babies in neonatal care are immense, and every pound raised will contribute to easing their journey and improving outcomes for these precious little ones.

How You Can Help:
Your support means the world to me and, more importantly, to the families Bliss assists. Whether you can contribute financially or simply share my JustGiving page to spread the word, every bit counts. Together, let's make a positive impact on the lives of these little fighters and their families.

Let's run towards a brighter future for premature and sick babies!

Bliss is the leading UK charity for babies born premature or sick. We rely on donations to fund our work but with one baby admitted to neonatal care every five minutes we don’t have the resources to reach every baby who needs us. Your donation can help Bliss ensure every baby gets the best care.
