Nathan Thompson is raising money for Petals
In memory of Aida Blossom Thompson

London Landmarks Half Marathon 2026 · 12 April 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

Take part in the London Landmarks Half Marathon 2026 for Petals - The Baby Loss Counselling Charity and raise money to help us provide more specialist counselling to bereaved parents when they need us the most.

Story

In March 2025 our beautiful baby Aida Blossom was born sleeping at 5 months. It was a devastating time for Sheona and I, and our family. Petals offered us specialised counselling support that really helped us both during those early weeks. We were able to speak regularly to an experienced, compassionate counsellor and we'll always be grateful for that support.

Our NHS trust sadly doesn't fund baby loss counselling, so Petal's provided our sessions through charity fundraising. We were shocked to learn that Petals have to turn away 20+ couples every week because they do not have the funds to deliver counselling to everyone who needs it.

We want to raise as much money as possible to help Petal's support everyone who has sadly experienced baby loss and reaches out for help.

Sheona and I were going to run LLHM together but we are delighted and very thankful to say she is currently 6 months pregnant - so the pressure falls on me to run further than I've ever done before and raise funds for this amazing charity!

Thank you so much for any pounds or pence you can put towards sponsoring me.

Heartfelt thanks,

Nathan.
