Mum of five, Archie, Lewis, Logan, Alba and Aliss.

Member of the Preterm Community Reference Group, Cofounder of Helping Little Hands, advocate.  

After the preterm birth of my son Lewis – our surviving twin to Logan – at 27 weeks, I knew there had to be a way to turn something so difficult and life-impacting into something positive and meaningful. When a chance arose to become involved with Telethon Kids, it felt like a natural, positive step to support research that will undoubtedly benefit the many children and their families who will face the challenges of a 'too early' start to life.
