Story

After 4 years out from the ring I have decided to step back through the ropes and fight again in memory of a little boy and a charity that are both close to my heart. On the 3 of March 2022, my best Friends beautiful baby boy George was born sleeping, I can not even begin to imagine what that would feel like as a parent. But Abigail's footsteps was there to help my dear friends, by providing a space in hospital and cooling cot so they could spent more time with George, to counselling and support. This is my chance to help give something back so Abigail's can carrry on helping other bereaved parents and carry George's legacy on. So please help me raise as much as possible.

Thank you 💙

Please read below for a little bit more information on Abigail's.

Since 2010, Abigail's Footsteps have worked to improve the way bereaved parents are cared for by hospitals and to better educate midwives on how to care for grieving parents.

Abigail's Footsteps also help by creating sympathetic space for parents in hospitals, to providing much needed equipment for parents to spend longer with their babies whilst also offering specialist baby loss counselling sessions.

Please help us raise vital funds so we can continue to support bereaved families.

Thank you.
