We are so PROUD of our Tommy’s partnership!

**TRIGGER WARNING**

We are sure you will have seen the Tommy’s and babyballet® partnership over the years, from raising awareness to our Dancethons, we have worked closely with them since 2016 to make a difference to babies’ lives! 

Today we can proudly say that we have raised OVER £1 MILLION for this wonderful charity! ❤️❤️❤️

We are so proud, thankful and honoured to have been able to reach this incredible milestone and we couldn’t have done it without the support of you all. 

So we’d like to say one HUGE thank you from the babyballet® family. We are so excited to continue working alongside Tommy’s in the years to come.

what do tommy’s do

Tommy's session Southern Dance Teacher Conference

Tommy’s help women at every stage of their pregnancy journey and supports them and their partners with answers and care. They have 4 research centres across the UK, where they conduct pioneering research into miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth.

We are all blessed beyond belief when our children arrive and grow up to be healthy and happy. And yet tragically, every year, 1 in 4 women lose a baby during pregnancy or birth. The money raised by babyballet stars in the Tommy’s Danceathons help to fund Tommy’s vital research into miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth, and provide pregnancy health information to parents.  

Tommy’s wants every parent to have the best possible pregnancy outcomes and to take home happy, healthy babies

Together we will continue to support Tommy’s and help save more babies’ lives!

We have many parents/guardians of our babyballet stars, who have experienced the heartbreaking loss of their baby.  all at different stages, for different reasons, and have coped in different ways.

This week we are celebrating having raised over £1 million for Tommy’s.

Samanta & Penelope’s story

Rainbow baby Penelope fundraised for Tommy’s this Danceathon in memory of her big sister, Scarlett. Mum Samanta bravely shares their story of loss and hope. 

“I am so proud of Scarlett’s legacy”

“I love how she changes the world each time someone donates in her memory or reaches out to a bereaved friend because of what her story taught them.

My little girl is impacting the world despite not being here! How amazing, and what a privilege to be her mama. In the words of one of her favourite songs: “Lord, the light of your love is shining”.

You can read Samanta & Penelope’s story here.

“There’s still hope and life after loss”

 

Let’s keep dancing babyballet stars, and shining bright as you always do!  We will be doing many more events over the year, and look forward to making 2023 a bumper year with Tommy’s, and having fun dancing all the way.

THANK YOU AGAIN from the bottom of our hearts! ❤️
