Starting Monday 17th August, I will be running 100mls over 3wks to raise money for Bliss. If you can spare even a gift aided pound it will help families less fortunate than we were when Daniel was luckily born 'locally' 8wks premature, we did not have to endure the potential trip to Skipton (73miles/almost 2hrs from where we live) if the wonderful team at our local Bassetlaw District General Hospital hadn’t done there thing!!!!

Even now with restrictions easing, new families are not able to be with their new borns ☹️

Thankyou if you can support me & I’ll keep you all updated on here, Strava & on my Instagram page @jonathanmangham 💚 #TeamBliss #GTDFB2020


On average parents travel 27 miles to visit their premature or sick baby in neonatal care - with some families travelling over 100 miles.

But with access to neonatal units currently restricted - the current COVID-19 pandemic is making the barriers which prevent parents being with their baby even harder to overcome.

Some parents currently aren't able to be with their baby at all - and for others the daily costs of travel to hospital and the challenge of finding childcare for older children come at a time when many families are facing job insecurity.

Bliss know that babies have the best outcomes if their parents are able to be actively involved in their care.

Your donation will help Bliss continue their work breaking down barriers stopping parents from being able to care for their babies on the neonatal unit.

Thankyou
