Lydia's fundraiser for Babyloss Support Leicester, Leicestershire & Rutland

Lydia Purkis is raising money for Babyloss Support Leicester, Leicestershire & Rutland

Walk a Marathon · 22 May 2026

We work to ensure bereaved families and those caring for them are adequately supported after the death of a baby during pregnancy or after birth by providing peer to peer support and widening support networks in Leicester, Leicestershire & Rutland.

Story

On 22 May, we will be taking on a 26.4‑mile walk — the equivalent of a full marathon — to raise money for Baby Loss Support Leicester.

This local charity provides vital emotional and practical support to families affected by baby loss, working closely with hospitals and healthcare professionals to ensure compassionate care when it is needed most.

We wanted to support a cause that makes a real difference within our community. Baby Loss Support Leicester offers understanding, comfort, and reassurance to families during incredibly difficult times, and fundraising helps them continue this important work.

We’re also incredibly grateful that our employer will match every donation, meaning your generosity will be doubled and have an even greater impact.

Thank you so much for supporting us and helping raise awareness for such an important cause. Every donation, big or small, truly makes a difference.
