Story

In March 2007 I received a call from my wife, she had just been for a check-up with her midwife.  'I think you may need to come and meet me at the hospital', I  left work and on the tube home,  I remember thinking, I hope this isn't going to take too long, I've got football tonight, will I need to cancel it?  Crumbs is this really happening surely the baby's not coming yet.

I walked into the room and saw Clare, this was serious....

24hrs later our daughter Lily Rose was born,  just over 10 weeks early, Clare was incredibly sick.  After 7 long weeks in hospital, Lily Rose came home and is now a cheeky 3 year old full of chat.

In August this year I'm cycling from Lands End (LE) to John O'Groats (JOG) to raise funds for the charity BLISS.

BLISS is a charity that, support babies who are born too soon, too small, too sick.  They provide much needed help and support to the families and carers of  these babies.

Bliss is the leading UK charity for babies born premature or sick. We rely on donations to fund our work but with one baby admitted to neonatal care every five minutes we don’t have the resources to reach every baby who needs us. Your donation can help Bliss ensure every baby gets the best care.
