Hello and thank you for finding my fundraising page 🙂

I am raising funds for SANDS, a charity that focuses both on reducing the number of babies dying and in supporting anyone affected by the death of a baby, before, during or shortly after birth. Currently in the UK, each and everyday 13 families suffer the heartbreak of losing their baby before, during or shortly after birth. Statistically that's 4,500 babies every year. Individually it's every family's worst nightmare and most painful loss. 

After suffering multiple miscarriages and two failed rounds of IVF, charities like SANDS are so very close to my heart for the support they gave me at the very worst times of mine and Loz's lives. Whilst the pain never truly goes away, being able to receive the help and support to work through that pain and the grief was invaluable and I will truly be forever grateful. 

To say thank you and to give something back and help others in future, I have signed up to run/walk/crawl the London Landmarks Half Marathon in early April next year and I'm looking for your help to raise as much money and awareness as possible to power me round the 13 miles! 

Those of you who know me well, will know this is a very genuine and tough challenge for me so please, if you can spare even the smallest amount to donate, I would be wonderfully grateful and take great comfort and motivation to get this done!   

With thanks and much love
