Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As most of you are aware Harry and I welcomed our third beautiful boy into the world on the 21st of May, unfortunately for us  our world crumbled on the 18th of May when we were told William was to be born sleeping. We started up Williams legacy and within days people’s generosity had us blown away, to date we have purchased a cool cot and 4 cuddle cots, along with furnishings for the bereavement suite where we had William. 

For those of you that know me, the idea of a skydive absolutely petrified me but yet here I am, I’ve been to hell and back through losing our beautiful boy, how hard can a skydive be right? When I’m up there I’ll be close to my boy. 

My skydive will be taking place on the 1st May 2021! 20 days before my boys first heavenly birthday because for that my feet need to be on the ground to make it as special as we can for William and our family.

We are raising funds for sands who are an amazing charity who support families through their darkest time’s, they fund bereavement courses for professionals and raise awareness on the subject of stillbirth and neonatal deaths.

Thank you for taking the time to read and thank you for your donation, together we can make a difference!
