Story

I'm proud to be joining Team Tommy's in the London Landmarks Half Marathon 2020 to support Tommy's and continue their vital work saving babies' lives. Tommy's fund research into miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth, and provide pregnancy health information to parents. They believe it is unacceptable that one in four women lose a baby during pregnancy and birth. They want every parent to have the best possible pregnancy outcomes and to take home happy, healthy babies.Please support me to take on the 13.1 miles of the London Landmarks Half Marathon. To give you an idea of the impact of your donation: £10 could buy a thermometer to help doctors at the Tommys miscarriage research centre predict ovulation. £100 could pay for a blood pressure monitor at the Tommys miscarriage research centre. £350 could fund a Tommy's midwife for a day on our pregnancy line giving specialist pregnancy advice and support.Thank you so much for your support! We didnt have the support 40 years ago, we just had to struggle and it was so hard and after losing our baby and going through an 18 hour labour and knowing that your baby was going to be born without organs and the skull missing was difficult to say the least, so to have Tommys to support you all now is tremendous. My heart goes out to anyone that loses a child.
