The STAND UP for Tiny Lives Campaign Action Medical Research needs you to do something special today. We are launching Walk for Tiny Lives, our new fundraising initiative to raise money for research into premature birth. The concept is simple: take part in one of our family-friendly sponsored walks, being organised by volunteers, or organise one yourself.... We know you care about the impact that premature birth continues to have on babies and families across the UK. It’s only through more research that we can change things. Please, go to www.walkfortinylives.org.uk and say you will help, today. Together we can help stop premature birth.

The STAND UP for Tiny Lives Campaign Action Medical Research has launched ‘Mums on the run’, a new initiative encouraging mums to get fit and work towards a personal goal while raising funds to help save tiny lives. We want to build a community of ‘mummy runners’ and hope those who have been personally affected by premature birth or pregnancy complications will get involved.

Are you a mum who wants to get fit? Have you ever thought about taking up running? Do you want to get fit and raise money for sick and disabled children?
