Story

I suffered multiple miscarriages earlier in my life and the impacts it had on my mental health. It was a long and difficult period of my life.

The Miscarriage Association (MA) are challenging their supporters to complete 250,000 steps throughout January, the same as the number of pregnancies that are estimated to end in miscarriage in the UK each year.

I used materials and the information on the MA’s website when I was struggling with my miscarriages. I am choosing to start my 2023 hopefully raising some funds for them and being a bit more active at the same time.

2023 is the 40th anniversary year for MA. Theres never likely to be a cure for miscarriage. And while people are going through this often very difficult and distressing experience, I want to the MA to continue to be around to support others like me

Thank you for your support!
