Phil and I will be joining the Teddy's Wish cycling tour round the Chilterns on 18th May. Teddy's Wish is a fabulous charity set up in memory of Eddie who left the world far too soon.

Teddy's Wish funds bereavement counselling following baby loss and supports baby loss charities such as Sands and Tommys which are both very close to our hearts having lost Baby Jack in 2020. The charity's vision is a future where no parents have to suffer the shattering loss of their baby.

Our challenge is to complete a 50km cycle route of the beautiful but hilly Chilterns. Before we started training, neither of us had done more than a leisurely 10k cycle but being fit we will get and cycling we will do and hopefully it will all come together on 18th May!!

Any donations would be greatly appreciated, it really is a very worthwhile charity...here is a little from them...

On Saturday 18th May 2024, a team of intrepid cyclists will be pedalling with purpose for Teddy's Wish.

Cyclists will embark on a scenic journey through the Chiltern Hills and will have the option of completing a 50km, 100 km or 100 miles route, starting and finishing at Davenies School in Beaconsfield.

Teddy's 10 Year Tour will be a poignant ride for the charity. It will mark 10 years since it was set up by parents Jen and Chris Reid to honour the memory of their baby boy Eddie, who was only three months old when he died from SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome).

The charity has spent the last decade raising funds for potentially life-saving research into the causes of SIDS, neonatal death and stillbirth and providing bereavement support for grieving families.

The precious funds raised from Teddy’s 10 Year Tour will fund bereavement counselling support for families who have suffered the devastating loss of a baby. This support is vital in giving families the strength and hope they need to rebuild their life again.

A donation of any amount will be so hugely appreciated.
