Chaplin Twins

My why

Just two months ago, I welcomed my Di/Di twins at 34+4. After a few days in hospital, they arrived via emergency c-section. Because they were pre-term, the doctors did everything possible to make sure they were ready for life outside my womb but we still couldn’t avoid the Special Care Nursery. 

Rory and Luca spent 16 days in SCN. They needed breathing support, feeding tubes and round the clock monitoring. The nurses, doctors and specialised equipment carried us through some of the hardest days of our lives. I truly can’t imagine our experience without them. 

If I can raise enough money to help even one family bring their premature baby home safely, then every step I take this November will be priceless. 

Every day in Australia, 71 babies are born prematurely.

This November, we will be taking on the Premmie Marathon Challenge to help give these babies a better chance at life.

Together, we'll be walking, running and moving throughout November while raising funds for Running for Premature Babies. The money we raise will help fund life-saving neonatal equipment and research, supporting premature babies and their families across Australia.

Every donation, no matter the size, helps provide the equipment and care these babies need during their most critical days.

We'd love your support. By donating to our team, you'll be helping us make every kilometre count for Australia's tiniest babies.

And if you'd like to be part of the challenge too, we'd love you to join our team (it's easy - just click JOIN OUR TEAM above). Choose your distance, get moving this November, and help us make an even bigger impact together.

Thank you for supporting us and helping more babies survive and thrive. 💜
