Story
On the 27th November 2022 we welcomed our first baby, a little boy who we named Aherlow. At birth he was tested for Haemophilia due to his mum being a carrier & we got the result that Aherlow was a Haemophilia sufferer.
I have chosen to raise awareness of the Haemophilia society by taking on the London Marathon 2024 & to help those babies just like mine deal with everyday life.
The Haemophilia Society (THS) is the only UK-wide charity for everyone affected by a genetic bleeding disorder. They are free to join and have more than 5,000 members.One in 2,000 people in the UK have a diagnosed bleeding disorder, including conditions such as haemophilia and von Willebrand disorder, that result when the blood cannot clot properly. As many as a third of bleeding disorder diagnoses have no known family history, which means a diagnosis can come completely out of the blue.THS campaign for what matters to their members, lobbying government, the NHS and clinicians to demand excellent care and safe, effective treatment, which is available to all.
