“You don’t know what you can do until you have to”
The phrase I learnt after having to say goodbye to my 5 day old daughter whilst looking after my 2 year old who didn’t understand what had just happened. 💔
On 10 October 2026, during Baby Loss Awareness Week, I’ll be walking 20 miles around Ullswater to mark the 10-year anniversary of her life : and I’m inviting others to walk with me. ⛰️🙏
We’re raising money for two incredible causes:
Shine a Light: supporting children and young people affected by cancer. Providing counselling, play therapy, and vital support for families navigating the unimaginable. www.shinealight.uk 💜
Freddie’s Wish: helping those who have lost a baby or child of any age and offer support and care when needed. They help bereaved parents access fully funded bereavement support and counselling and also run regular parent and child first aid courses www.freddieswish.org 💙
20 miles. One lake. One day. One group walking for those who can’t walk for themselves.
Whether you’re a seasoned walker or this is your furthest challenge, you’re welcome. 🎉
Every pound raised goes directly to both charities, split equally.
