This October we are setting ourselves the challenge of completing 5K every single day to raise funds for Tommy’s. We are going to do a mixture of walking, jogging and running - on top of what we would normally do daily.

Tommy’s is a charity that funds vital research into miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth, and provides support to families who have experienced baby loss.This cause is incredibly close to our hearts.

In May, our world was turned upside down when we went for our first routine pregnancy scan and heard the words no parent should ever have to hear:

“I’m sorry, there’s no heartbeat.”

We had suffered a missed miscarriage — something we had never even heard of before it happened. Amy’s body had continued on as if everything was fine, but our baby had stopped growing, and their heart had stopped beating.

The grief, the shock, and the emptiness that followed are hard to put into words. But we know we’re not alone — 1 in 4 pregnancies end in loss, and yet it's still something we don’t talk about enough.

We really hope that you will support us on this challenge and help to raise vital funds for Tommy’s - thank you!
