Victoria's fundraiser for Tommy’s, the pregnancy and baby charity

Victoria Higgins is raising money for Tommy’s, the pregnancy and baby charity
In memory of My 7 lost babies

Milton Keynes Marathon · 5 May 2025

Tommy's funds medical research into the causes of premature birth, stillbirth and miscarriage. We’re dedicated to finding causes and treatments to save babies’ lives as well as providing trusted pregnancy and baby loss information and support.

Story

I’m fundraising for Tommy’s who exist to stop the heartbreak and devastation of baby loss and to make pregnancy and birth safer - for everyone.

My story….

I lost 7 babies

And didn’t take a day off work.

There is NOTHING good about that.

I didn’t know about Tommy's then (I wish I had). When a friend approached me following a comment I made on LI about miscarriage we set up the Pregnancy and Baby Loss Support Group at GSK.

Tommys were amazing, providing loads of support and educational materials and delivering a truly valuable talk during Baby Loss awareness week led by their fabulous midwife Amina.

The group has gone from strength to strength and I know it provides support and helpful information to colleagues across the business (as well leading the charge to change HR policies related to miscarriage and baby loss).

It’s my turn to give back to Tommys.

I’m running my second marathon on May 5th this year for Tommy’s and would truly appreciate any sponsorship you might provide.

If you know of anyone who might be prepared to sponsor me please share this post.

With love and thanks

Victoria ❤️
