Story

Why am I doing this?

Petals are an incredible charity who come alongside people who have suffered the pain of babyloss. We benefited greatly from their specialist counselling and want to make sure they can say ‘yes’ to all who need it.

What will I be doing?

Over the years we’ve taken on challenges to raise money to support this special charity. This year I will be walking 100k along the Thames Path. I’ll be participating in the UltraChallenge UltraMarch which means I aim to cover the distance within 24 hours!

Your sponsorship will help keep me going in the dark, cold, wee hours, but more importantly you’ll be supporting this special charity.

Who are Petals?

We are Petals, the baby loss counselling charity. The specialist counselling service that we provide is life-changing for parents who have suffered the devastating loss of a pregnancy or death of a baby. We know that these tragic experiences not only result in grief but also in trauma. Our wonderful counsellors are there to help our clients navigate their grief and trauma and to guide them to a place of hope.

Supporting this challenge you will be helping us to deliver more vital counselling sessions to bereaved parents when they need us.
