Story

Marley our beautiful, fun and happy 10 month old died suddenly and our lives changed forever. His smile, his squeal, his mess and his ginger hair suddenly ripped away from us. Since his death we have honoured his short life and his love for everyone by promising to #BeMoreMarley. This is why we fundraise on his anniversary to make the worst day of our lives that little bit bearable. Please help us raise money for Teddy’s wish in Marley’s name to support other bereaved families.  I will also be undertaking the challenge of cycling 204 miles from the Isle of Sheppey to Weston Supermare on 24th June in Chase the sun. We also have two close friends of ours Anna and Louise taking on the Oxford half marathon in October. We’d love to fund some support sessions for children who have lossy precious siblings so they can share in their grief with others if their own age. If you’d like to join team Marley for fundraising your own challenge please get in touch as we have a Team Marley fundraising page linked to this one.
