When my twin nieces were born by emergency c-section in May 2024 at just 27 weeks, it threw our family into a world of incubators, baby heart monitors and the tiniest nappies you’ve ever seen. The care they received at both the Derby and Nottingham units was incredible & the teams there do an exceptional job providing support to so many families at the hardest times.

I’ll be forever grateful for getting to meet Callie, even if only for a short time, and forever grateful for the amazing care that Poppy received so she could grow into the most smiley baby she is today 💕

So this is just a small effort* from me say to thank you & give something back to make sure families in the future can receive the same support.

Any donations very gratefully received! ✌️

*I thought it was a small effort when I started training in Jan but turns out (having only ran 10k before this training block), 21k is quite a big effort 😅
