Hi, thanks for visiting my page. Through Virgin Money Giving, you can sponsor me and donations will be quickly processed and passed to charities. Virgin Money Giving is a not for profit organisation and will claim gift aid on a charity's behalf where the donor is eligible for this. I really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations.

I am running the London Marathon to raise money for Tommys who fund research into miscarriages, still births and premature births. As most of you are aware, Claire and I have experienced 3 early miscarriages and 1 late miscarriage, where we had a little girl, Grace.  We were given no explanations to why we had those 3 early miscarriages. That didn't help us, we wanted to know why we were losing our babies every time we fell pregnant. 

I am wanting to raise money for Tommys so they can continue to fund research into such an awful, heartbreaking experience that many people have to go through. Some people never get the happy ending they deserve, we were lucky and now have our gorgeous baby girl, Amelia Grace. If the money I raise can prevent one family not having to go through what we went through, then the miles I have covered training for this marathon will be more than worthwhile.
