I am running for Petals, the baby loss counselling charity in memory of the much loved and hugely missed Carter Blackman. Sadly our friends lost Carter only four short months into his life, and although we are yet to know the real reasons why, I wanted to do this run having seen the pain they have had to go through. 

Petals provide specialist counselling service for women, men and couples who have suffered the devastating loss of a pregnancy or death of a baby. Since Petals began its incredible work ten years ago, thousands of couples have been supported by their counsellors and in the last 12 months alone they have delivered over 4,400 counselling sessions. By supporting this challenge you will be helping them to deliver more vital counselling sessions to bereaved parents when they need it the most.
