I’m running 2k a day in January for families facing baby loss

Losing our son, Alfie Heslop, to stillbirth changed our lives forever. The pain of becoming parents without our baby in our arms is something no family should ever have to face.

During our darkest moments, this charity was there for us. They offered compassion, understanding, and support when we felt completely lost. They helped us feel less alone, acknowledged Alfie as our son, and reminded us that our grief — and our love for him — truly matters.

This charity gave us comfort when we needed it most, and because of that, it means the world to us.

By fundraising, we hope to give other families the same care, understanding, and support that helped us through our heartbreak. No parent should have to walk this journey alone.

Thank you for helping us honour Alfie’s memory and support families when they need it most.

With love,

Alfie’s parents 💙
