Story

What a day! So privileged to have run the London Marathon for Bliss! Very hot conditions but made it to the finish with the help of the fabulous crowds, fellow runners, organisers, family, friends and the great Bliss team! 

Thank you everyone! 

I’ve chosen to fundraise for Bliss because I want to make a real difference to the 95,000 babies born premature or sick every year. 

In 2010, two of those babies were our twins, Jack and Charlie. Weighing in at just over two pounds, it was a stressful time! After 7 weeks at the hospital we went home. The work Bliss do for premature babies and their families is very important to us and I hope will inspire you to sponsor this slightly mad first time marathon runner. Eight years on Jack and Charlie are thriving - if I can harness half their energy, I may even finish! 

THANK YOU FOR SPONSORING ME - we very much appreciate it! 

Keith and Laura xx

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.
