Story

The need for cancer support in or around pregnancy is real and growing. This year, we supported hundreds of mums and connected with even more families, but we can’t meet this rising demand without your support.

Donate or join the Star Jump Challenge this December to help us continue this vital work in 2025.

The Goal

This year, the number of referrals for support we have received has increased by 40%.

It costs a minimum of £360 to support one mum or birthing parent, diagnosed with cancer in or around pregnancy, for a year.

We want to raise enough to support 10 mums in 2025: £3600!

Step 1: Choose your challenge

> Simple Challenge

Do 1 minute of Star Jumps every day from 13th - 24th December.

That's it!

> Advanced Challenge

Accumulate minutes of Star Jumps each day.

Between 13th and 24th December you’ll try increasing the minutes of Star Jumps you do. Start with 1 minute on the 13th, 2 minutes on the 14th, and so on … all the way up to 12 minutes on the 24th!

You can try to make the minutes continuous or break them up throughout the day.

Remember, it’s all about fun and fundraising!

Step 2: Choose how to fundraise

When your friends and family hear about your amazing challenge, they will want to support you!

You can:

> point them to this page, where they can leave a donation; or

> create your own fundraising page by clicking the orange Start Fundraising button. The total on your fundraising page will automatically be added to our overall total and count towards our goal!

Step 3: Get Sharing!

Tell people what you are up to!

Share the link to your chosen fundraising page and tell everyone why you’ve decided to fundraise for us this year.

Then, get ready to jump!
