Miscarriage Association Miles that Matter 2022, 1 July 2022
Experts estimate that each year around 250,000 pregnancies end in miscarriage in the UK. That means that around 21,000 pregnancies will be lost in July alone.

Story

So last year I walked 24 miles for miscarriage awareness so this year I have decided up up my game. The focus in July is the number 21. In July, figures suggest that around 21,000 pregnancies will be lost in that month alone. So, if my knees will let me 👀 I’ll be walking 21,000 steps and I’ll be doing 21 miles on my spinning bike.

I’ll be doing this for everyone I know personally or through social media that has suffered from baby loss! But also for myself and my 3 babies in heaven ❤️❤️❤️

Together we will raise awareness ☺️

Experts estimate that each year around 250,000 pregnancies end in miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy in the UK. This figure suggests that around 21,000 pregnancies will be lost in the 31 days of July alone.We are asking our supporters to spend the month of July reflecting on this figure by raising awareness of the issues surrounding pregnancy loss, signposting people to the services we offer, and raising funds to ensure that the M.A can continue to be there for those that need us most.Last year, over 100 supporters walked, ran, cycled and swam throughout July, so you won't be doing this alone. Please look for the hashtag #MilesThatMatter, and know that we are cheering you on from afar’
