Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

http://achingarms.co.uk/miles-in-memory-challenge/

During October Mark & I will be running/walking/cycling 259 miles to raise funds for Aching Arms, Miles in Memory challenge.

We have chosen 259 miles as this represents the number of days that will have passed without Katie for us to hold at the end of the challenge (31st October 2016).

Aching Arms is a baby loss charity run by a group of bereaved mothers who have experienced the pain and emptiness of leaving hospital without their much wanted baby.


Their aim is to raise awareness of the impact of pregnancy and baby loss and bring some comfort to bereaved parents and their families after the loss of a baby.


They provide Aching Arms bears to hospitals for midwives to give out. They also reach out to bereaved families who contact them via our website, email, Facebook or Twitter and post dedicated bears directly.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
