Story

Thank you all for visiting my page. 

I just want to make it clear that Yasmin and I have never experienced the loss of a baby post pregnancy. 

The reason why I am raising money for such an amazing charity is because, as a father of two young children, I can’t imagine a more harrowing experience to go through than losing a child.

As a keen runner myself, I expect to (hopefully) complete many marathons in my life so my intention is to only raise money for my first one. I think it’s only fair on friends and family!
