Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.

As many of you know, I am a keen supporter of Bliss following the premature birth of Eoin in 2007. Eoin was born at 26 weeks weighing 2lb 4oz. He almost didn't make it, but thanks to the skill and dedication of the doctors and nurses he pulled through. Eoin spent 3 months in hospital and finally came home 4 days before his due date. Eoin's premature birth and his neonatal journey was a traumatic and difficult time for our family. We were supported by Bliss in those early days and recognise the great work they do both in helping babies and families, and raising awareness about the needs of sick and premature babies through campaigning.

We now want to turn one of the most stressful times in our lives into one of the most positive by supporting Bliss in their activities to make things better for those who follow.

We have done marathons, half marathons and epic cycle rides. We have met parliamentarians and senior health professionals to lobby for change.

On May 25th, I will be attempting to walk from London to Brighton, a distance of approx 100km, in under 24 hours.

It would be fantastic if you could support me in this journey. Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: BLISS gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now - it is most appreciated.

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.
