I'm going to be running the Amsterdam marathon in October in memory of a very special young man - Francis Robert Moir Howe. Frankie was born on October 26, 2020 and passed away on 29 January, 2021.
We're raising money for the amazing Tiny Tickers, a very special charity and one chosen by Frankie's parents, Nick and Sarah. The marathon is in two months and I've only just started training so please donate what you can so I start taking this all a little more seriously. Some info about Tiny Tickers below.
A baby is born with a serious heart condition every two hours in the UK and despite congenital heart disease being one of the biggest killers of infants, only around half of congenital heart defects are picked up during routine prenatal scanning. With your help we can provide a safety net for the 1,000 babies each year that leave hospital with their heart defect undetected, increasing detection rates, improving a baby’s chances of survival and long-term quality of life.
