In January this year, Lucy and I suffered our third miscarriage a day before we were due to attend our 12 week scan. As you can imagine, having made it so far into the pregnancy we were incredibly distraught at the event. What made it even harder is that we will never know the why.

Despite this, we still consider ourselves lucky in having had one successful pregnancy and have another on the way. Many families are not so lucky.

So, I am going to undertake 2 challenges in 2 weeks this Autumn:

Firstly the Loch Ness Marathon on 29 Sept;

Secondly on 11 Oct, along with a colleague and support from the Sqn, the national 3 peaks challenge.

The aim being to raise money tor Tommy's who exist to stop the heartbreak and devastation of baby loss and to make pregnancy and birth safer - for everyone.

Tommy's is dedicated to finding causes and treatments as well as providing trusted pregnancy and baby loss information and support.

Your donation will help find answers, cures and makes breakthroughs happen. Each donation will help take a step closer to saving babies' lives. Thank you.
