Story

I have decided to join the Sands' Winter Walk this December for a very special reason close to our hearts. The very wonderful charity Sands has set a challenge to walk 25 miles throughout December, but I will be walking as many miles as my legs will take me, rain or shine.
Thank you so much for your donations and support so far, if anyone would like to join me on a walk please get in touch!

At our 20 week scan, we were given the devastating news our first baby had complications with his brain and his heart and after many appointments and tests to find out the cause, our baby Billy died, he was born at 23 weeks and 6 days on Thursday 17th November 2022.

We were going to have a baby, but we have an angel instead 💙
