Story

I am taking part in Edward’s Trust charity Wing Walk

Last year, my partner, Becky and I went through a pregnancy loss whilst on holiday. It was a harrowing experience, made more stressful and upsetting in a foreign country. At the time though, we both agreed we wanted to see something positive come from it. So, now I am putting some of the energy and emotion of that time into raising money for Edward’s Trust.

WING WALK WEIGHT LOSS

When I signed up 8 weeks ago I was actually too heavy - but I’ve lost nearly 1 and a half stone (10kg) and am now at wing walk weight!

THE WING WALK

On Thursday 24th July 2025 I will take to the skies on the top wing of a Boeing Stearman biplane, and I am raising funds to help Edward’s Trust continue supporting bereaved parents, children and young people across the West Midlands.

Every year, Edward’s Trust supports around 700 families who are navigating the devastating impact of bereavement. It costs approximately £600,000 annually to fund the range of vital services we provide, from counselling and well-being therapies to support groups, all free of charge and with no time limits.

Without government funding, Edward’s Trust rely entirely on the generosity of supporters like me and you. Every donation you give directly helps bereaved families rebuild their lives and find hope for the future.

Thank you for your support.
