Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 19th March 2015 my partner gave birth to our gorgeous twins Fletcher and Maddison weighing 2'13Ibs and 2'6lbs respectively. They arrived 10 weeks ahead of schedule and spent 6-7 weeks in Watford General SCBU.

The twins are now doing really well as they approach their first birthday and this is thanks to our local SCBU. 

Unfortunately the service is not fully funded by the NHS so needs valuable funds to keep going. I will be raising funds through HertsPrem who are a group of parents who met in Watford Special Care Unit and have experienced premature labour. The group meet regularly, supporting and sharing experiences. 

I will be running Watford half marathon on 7th Feb, cycling London to Brighton on 11th Sept, London RatRace (10k obstacle course) 13th August. Newham Great Run on 17th July and will be signing up to two other mud-obstacle fuelled events TBC.

Please support me so we can support those who work tirelessly to save premmie babies. Any donations are much appreciated.
