Baby Basics Northampton has been part of my life since I was six years old. My mum is the CEO and co-founder of the charity, so I've grown up understanding the challenges many local families face and the difference this charity makes every day.

Every baby deserves a safe place to sleep, but sadly, not every family can afford the essentials they need. Baby Basics Northampton provides Moses basket starter packs and other vital items to families experiencing crisis, giving them practical support, hope, and the reassurance that they are not alone.

Running is another huge part of my life. I've proudly represented Northamptonshire for almost ten years, and I love every second of it. Taking on this half marathon is the perfect opportunity to combine my passion for running with a cause that has always been close to my heart.

This isn't my first time fundraising for Baby Basics Northampton, and it certainly won't be my last. Every pound raised helps provide essential items for local families and newborn babies, making a difference at one of the most important moments in their lives.

If you're able to support me, no matter how big or small the donation, I'd be incredibly grateful. Every donation helps give a baby the best possible start in life and reminds families that their community is standing beside them.

Thank you so much for your support—it truly means the world to me and to the families Baby Basics Northampton helps.
