We are Frith and Abbie, two midwives and friends taking on a challenge neither of us have ever attempted before — our first half marathon!

We’ll be running the London Landmarks Half Marathon together in April, taking on 13.1 miles for Eden, someone incredibly special to us whilst raising money and awareness of SANDS charity.

Eden, is Frith’s beautiful niece, who was born sleeping, August 2025. 💗

Eden’s life, has left a lasting mark on her family, and we wanted to do something meaningful in her memory. As midwives, we know just how precious life is and how deeply the loss of a baby affects families. We hope that by taking on this challenge, we can raise money to support a cause that makes a difference to families going through the unimaginable pain of baby loss.

Neither of us have ever run a half marathon before, so this will be a huge challenge — there will undoubtedly be tough training sessions, tired legs and moments when we question what we’ve signed up for! But every step will be for Eden, and that will keep us going.

If you’re able to donate, no matter how big or small, we would be so grateful. Every donation will help us turn this personal challenge into something positive in Eden’s memory.

Thank you for supporting us, cheering us on and helping us honour our beautiful Eden. She will be with us every step of the way🦋💗

This one’s for you, Eden. 🤍
