Hi,

Thank you for visiting our sponsorship page. For those of you that have said "I'll sponsor you" but havent done so please please can you get your money to us. we still have about £1500 to go to reach our goal.

Why are we doing this... I cant speak for the rest but my family have been affected by child birth deaths on more than one occassion its the saddest thing i think i have encountered, i've had friends suffer the same heartbreak and now i have the chance to raise money for something close to home.

A baby is born prematurely every 10 minutes in the UK – that’s over 50,000 babies a year. Tragically, more than 25 premature babies die every week because they were born too soon.

Touching Tiny Lives is the Action Medical Research appeal to raise funds for vital medical research to reduce the unacceptable high rate of premature birth, prevent pregnancy complications that threaten babies’ lives and find the best ways to treat sick and vulnerable babies.

Only medical research can give us a real understanding of the conditions that put babies at risk, and enable doctors to find new treatments. With the help of Action Medical Research funding, leading doctors and scientists across the UK are working hard to find better ways to diagnose women at risk of pregnancy complications, to understand why premature birth occurs and find ways to prevent it, as well as looking for new and better treatments to help sick babies.

Help us raise as much as we can to help save tiny lives.
