Story

As my wife and I embarked on our pregnancy journey in 2015, we were blissfully unaware of the very real possibility of miscarriage. Until, the unthinkable happened. 6 years of IVF and multiple miscarriages led to us having our beautiful little boy, something we started to believe would never happen.

This is an issue which is so common, and yet so rarely spoken about. Talking about our experiences, led to us hearing of others with similar journeys.

I was introduced to Olly who will be running 39 marathons over 39 consecutive weeks, throughout 2026 in each of the 39 historic counties of England. https://marathonsformiracles.com

I will be Olly's Cheshire runner and we will be running the 4 villages half marathon on Sunday 18th January.

Alongside the running, I and others will be sharing stories of our experiences through Podcasts https://open.spotify.com/show/78ADToC5ETz9QHcgqKAS2k?si=zklJYLXUR0q9hBDoOOHnRA

Tommy’s exist to stop the heartbreak and devastation of baby loss and to make pregnancy and birth safer - for everyone.

Tommy's is dedicated to finding causes and treatments as well as providing trusted pregnancy and baby loss information and support.
