I'm Stepping Up to help the Miscarriage Association this January!

For the M.A., every pregnancy loss matters, so we're challenging our supporters to complete 250,000 steps in January - the same as the number of pregnancies estimated to end in miscarriage, molar, and ectopic pregnancies in the UK each year.

Story

The M.A believes that every pregnancy loss matters, and they've asked their supporters to join their January 2024 Step Up campaign by pledging to take 250,000 steps in January, one step for each of the 250,000 babies estimated to be lost to miscarriage, molar, and ectopic pregnancy each year.

As part of Team M.A., Pete and myself are hoping to raise awareness and start conversations about the issues surrounding pregnancy loss, signpost people to the services the M.A offer, and raise funds to ensure that they can continue to be there for those that need them most. Unfortunately resources from the NHS are very lacking for those experiencing pregnancy loss so the resources and support offered by the M.A is vital. As a couple who have experienced recurrent loss this is a cause close to our heart. We will of course be joined on our walks by our trusty companion Jericho.

Thank you for helping them continue to be there for those who need them, this month and for the future.
