Lizi's fundraiser for Sands, the stillbirth and neonatal death charity
Lizi Harrison is raising money for Sands
Story
On 6th November 2022 my beautiful nephew Charlie was born, forever sleeping.
We as a family will never fully understand why this happened. It has devastated my lovely sister and brother-in-law, Jo & Rick. A cruel twist of ‘science gone wrong’ lead to the loss of their darling Charlie, when his heart stopped beating at 34 weeks.

In the lead up to 6 months since Charlie's birthday, I am aiming to complete as many miles as I can throughout April (totalling multiple marathons) as a tribute to Charlie. This may not be much to an avid runner, but it's a big challenge for me personally.
I do this in memory of Charlie, but also to raise awareness for Sands - an amazing charity that have offered Jo & Rick, and many like them, such valuable support through the darkest of times. If I can raise some money for the charity too, even better!
Thank you so much for any donation, whether it's £1 or £100 ❤️

Every time I look up to the sky, I think of Charlie; our shining star, our guardian angel. Every rainbow, every sunset, every glistening star. I promise to remember you always, and love you forever. Sleep tight Charlie my little love, Auntie Lizi loves you so much 👼🏼✨
