Story

Child Bereavement UK help children and young people (up to age 25), parents, and families, to rebuild their lives when a child grieves or when a child dies. Child Bereavement UK also provide training to professionals, equipping them to provide the best possible care to bereaved families.

This year I have decided to run the London Marathon in memory of my brother in law, Ryan who we sadly and very suddenly lost on Christmas Eve 2021. Tragically, Ryan left behind two young children, Louis age 4 and Isla just 8 months old.

This charity makes a huge difference to people's lives and enables children and families to rebuild after such a life changing tragedy.

The loss of a child, or a young child losing a parent affects so many people and more families than we realise. Myself and Hannah, back in 2015, lost our son Jude so feel very strongly that this Charity is a very worthy and, unfortunately, much needed cause.

Please give what you can and help support the work that they do.

Thank you,

Martin
