Hi there,

Ross and I are hoping you might help us celebrate our wedding by donating to two charities close to our heart.

"I’m supporting Freedom from Fistula. An estimated 2 million women in Africa suffer silently with an obstetric fistula, which usually occurs during an obstructed labour when emergency care is unavailable. Women suffering from obstructed labour often struggle until the baby dies and during this agonising process, loss of circulation causes tissue to die, leaving large gaps between the birth canal and bladder or rectum, causing incontinence. These women deserve to be more than statistics, they deserve decent healthcare when they bring their children into the world and surgical repair of their injuries." - Emma
