Team Poppy at the Mad March Mare 2016

The beginning of March was quite a cold one this year, but that didn’t stop Poppy Soulsby’s mum and 5 friends from tackling a 10km multi-terrain assault course in the depths of Northumberland!

Mum and friends raised an incredible £1,987.50 for the Tiny Lives Trust in honour of the two months that Poppy spent on SCBU after being born at 25+2 last September.

With Poppy waiting for them beyond the finish line (aka a 6 ft wall!), they had all the motivation they needed for that final stretch.

Thank you to Gemma Soulsby, Lynda Carty, Joanne Punton, Claire Burn, Melanie Dunn and Lucy Eager for their hard work in not only running (or tackling) the course in honour of Poppy but for raising such an amazing amount in the process!
