Heather runs the Brighton Marathon 2012 for the Child Bereavement Charity! – Heather is training for the Brighton Marathon and hoping to raise lots of money for the Child Bereavement Charity! Back in 2003 our lives were turned upside down when after a short illness Louise passed away. Heather became a mother overnight to her two grieving children and has since adopted them. Having experienced the total lack of local bereavement support in 2003 the family are keen supporters of the Child Bereavement Charity to ensure other families who find themselves in this terrible situation get the help they need to find happiness again, You can sponsor Heather at www.justgiving.com/heather-hayward UPDATE 21/04/2012 A huge thank you to my anon donor for sponsoring me today after watching this video clip.
