Simplyhealth Great North Run 2019 · 8 September 2019 ·
A baby is born with a serious heart condition every two hours in the UK and despite congenital heart disease being one of the biggest killers of infants in the UK, only around half of congenital heart defects are picked up during routine prenatal scanning. It is absolutely vital that we provide a safety net for the 1,000 babies each year that leave hospital with their heart defect undetected. Help us to increase early detection rates of cardiac conditions thus improving a baby’s chances of survival and long-term quality of life.
I have been a Sonographer for over 30 years and am passionate about improving our detection rate of CHD. Tiny Tickers supports sonographers by providing training and support. I work in a team of 20 Obstetric Sonographers and so I am aiming to raise £1000 so that Tiny Tickers can continue to provide this important training to teams like ours.
ALSO - I am looking for support and motivation for my run!
I'm 53 years old and have never entered a run before.
Feeling a bit sick :) Please get behind me and make a donation - knowing that I have a reason to run will keep me going - please make a donation and cheer me on.
thank you
