Plymouth 10k and half marathon · 19 June 2022

Luna's Fund aims to positively impact the mental, emotional and physical health and well-being of bereaved parents upon the loss of their baby in Devon & Cornwall.

Story

On September the 30th our lives changed forever when our beautiful daughter Olwyn was stillborn at 35 weeks. Although we only had 35 precious weeks with her she has shown us the real meaning of life & love. She has changed the way we view life & everything which happens within it.

In the very early days we had incredible support from Lunas fund. Both Aimee and Ryan were personally on hand with words of support & gave us hope that we could get through each day.

Lunas fund is a baby loss charity determined to positively aid the mental & physical health as well as the wellbeing of bereaved parents upon the loss of their baby. The charity supports parents by offering a choice of tangible services that they can access immediately upon leaving the hospital.

We are hoping to raise lots of money to support other parents dealing with the unimaginable.

Thank you for all of your support.

Love Sean, Holly & Olwyn xXx

A message from the runners..

While blessed with Olwyn for just a short time, she has not just changed the lives of Holly and Sean, but also those of her friends and family. Luna’s Fund gave our friends the support they needed, when faced with one of life’s most incomprehensible situations, giving them hope for the future, while shaping a ‘new normal’.

We want to help the charity which gave our friends a lifeline after loss, when we didn’t know how, by running Plymouth’s Half Marathon and 10k on Sunday 19th June.

While being a personal challenge, we know it’s nothing compared to what Holly and Sean have experienced. We are determined to raise as much as possible in memory of Olwyn – who will forever be a member of the girl gang - for Luna’s Fund, so they can continue to provide life-changing support for families.
