My son Ellis was born at 25 + 2 weeks back in 2019. 

He spent 96 days in the Trevor Mann Baby Unit, Brighton (with a brief stay at the Special Care Baby Unit in Haywards Heath).

Thanks to the incredible doctors and nurses, Ellis is now a thriving 2-year-old, who loves diggers and FOOD. 

The Early Birth Association provide vital funds to the units which help supports the staff, the parents and families and babies. 

Their funding enables the units to purchase life-saving equipment, making a huge difference to many little lives. 

They also do so much for the parents on the units and after receiving their support during Ellis' stay I vowed to myself to help as much as I could to repay their kindness. 

Therefore, I am taking part in this year's Tough Mudder to fundraise for this amazing charity!

I've been swimming, running, even lifting weights (small weights) I am serious guys, I AM GONNA BE A TOUGH MUDDER - but I need your help to get there!

Every little helps (not just for Tesco) and so please give what you can and contribute to helping these heroic premature and sick babies. 💛
