RAWR with Sophie from Running for Premature Babies: Turning tragedy and grief into hope and a $5 million purpose
Description
Sophie is a hero in our eyes - and it's no surprise she has been publicly recognised as one. Her story and what she's created in response to her grief has already touched so many. In this episode, Sophie opens up about tragically losing her triplet sons and how she and her husband Ash founded the Australian registered charity Running for Premature Babies in their memory. She later went on to have two more sons before losing Ash to an aggressive form of brain cancer. Sophie has turned tragedy into hope and finds beauty in the smallest moments.
Today, Running for Premature Babies has raised $5 million for life saving neonatal equipment and research to give premature babies a better chance of survival and better quality of life.
In memory of Sophie’s late husband Ash, and their babies Henry, Jasper and Evan.
