We are fundraising for Colchester & Ipswich Hospitals charity and, specifically, Ipswich Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).

Elsie’s baby sister, Riley, was born in October 2025 and was taken to NICU due to issues with her breathing. Instead of a short stay like we initially thought, we spent weeks in hospital (between Ipswich and Addenbrookes) filled with worry, anxiety, operations and tests. Although it was the most heartbreaking and traumatic time of our lives, the staff and nurses at Ipswich NICU provided comfort, support and warmth to us, while providing such excellent care.

Elsie and I are running for them and for our little Riley (who will be cheering us on at the sidelines with daddy) x
