This November I’m taking on the Premmie Marathon Challenge

I’ll be clocking up my kms in the Premmie Marathon Challenge to raise funds for life-saving neonatal equipment that will give critically ill and premature babies a better chance of survival.

I'd love your support - if you can, please make a generous tax-deductible donation here.

Our boy Xavier was born 5 weeks early and weighing only 1.5kgs. Although a late preterm birth, his size and complications required him to rely on life saving equipment in his early days. Our little guy fought hard and spent just shy of 8 weeks in the NICU, covering 4 hospitals. Unfortunately the hospital he was born in didnt have the life saving medical equipment he needed, so I want to raise money to be able to help fund the equipment required to save and assist the lives of babies in our NICUs. This is a special cause for our family and we will forever be grateful for the equipment, nurses and doctors who looked after us during a stressful and unimaginable time.

Thank you for your support.
Your donation will help keep me motivated as I complete my challenge through November, last year I got through 42 kms and this year im going for 100kms,  knowing that each km I complete is helping save the lives of sick and premature babies.
