Story
I am taking on Petals 10 for 10 Challenge to enable them to be there for bereaved parents. I will be running ten 5kms during the month of May.
Last year on the 9th of June 2021, I went into labour. We were all so excited for the arrival of our beautiful daughter. However, I was told the devastating news that they couldn’t find a heart beat, my heart shattered into a million pieces. We had a beautiful girl who we called Seren Joy.
We were told about Petals at the hospital, not something I ever imagined we would need after Seren's arrival, but her arrival wasn’t how we expected either. We were referred to Petals and started counselling a couple of months later. Jamie and I have been having bereavement counselling together, which has helped us process our thoughts and feelings after this traumatic experience.
I am raising money for Petals in support of their 10th anniversary. This will enable Petals to continue the incredible work they do, in assisting bereaved parents at their most vulnerable. Any small donation will be greatly appreciated, thank you so much.
