Sands Charity - Give What You Can

I was hesitant whilst thinking about moving forward with this.  I've wanted to raise funds for Sands Charity for quite sometime, although feel that we are always being asked to donate to this and that, and to sponsor people for all sorts of things. 

Well - a month or so ago, I decided to commit to trying to raise a least £2000 towards the incredible, and much needed Sands Charity (Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Charity).  Our daughter Poppy would have been 18 years old this year, and not a day goes by without her being in our thoughts.  Its a terribly sad and distressing time for the thousands of parents that go through this, and without the non-government funded help from Sands, I think many people would just never get their lives back on track.

I'm running four ultra's this year in memory of our daughter and to raise funds and awareness.  The events are:

14th March - Coast to Coast 60 miles (a personal aim to run over 4 mountain ranges with freinds, with around 18,000ft of gain, sub 24 hours)

27th June - Ultra Dolomites - 60 miles of steepup in the mountains of Cortina.

11th July - GB Beacons Ultra - 100 mile of mountains and sunshine, with around 22,000ft of gain.

5th Sept' - GB Snowdon Ultra 100 mile of mountains and harsh conditions - around 30,000ft of gain.

I guess that is otherwise know as quite a tough year (lots of training, family and work along the way!).

The link to my fundraising page is in the Just Giving icon on the side of my page there (and here: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/chris-davies81 ) - please take a peak and help if you can (a heart warming thanks in advance!).

Best wishes,

Chris.
