Following the very sad and sudden loss of my grandson, Mary & Aidans beautiful son Hugo, they had the help of an amazing charity, Forever Stars. They gave Mary & Aidan precious time with Hugo before they had to say goodnight.

Despite their own grief, they then went onto raise over £5000 to help other parents to also have that special time.

I now want to add to that and raise even more. By running the London marathon!

Hugo William Blake was born asleep on the 19th April 2025.

The London marathon takes place on the 26th April 2026. Every step will be for Hugo. 🩵

Please help me raise as much as possible for them. Nobody 'needs' a charity until the worst happens.

Here's why Forever Stars was created...

Forever Stars was setup following the stillbirth of Emily Daniels on December 19th 2013. Although Emily was stillborn, Michelle and Richard had to go back on to the labour ward where they were surrounded by the sounds of child birth, families celebrating and of course the sound of healthy babies.

Michelle and Richard decided that they would fundraise in the name of their daughter to facilitate the building and equipping of bereavement suites and other support material and facilities of future bereaved parents in and around Nottingham.
