Welcome to Team Tommy's! Thanks so much for signing up to cycle with us.
The money you raise is extremely important to us as it will fund our vital medical research into the causes of miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth.
Don't forget to set up your Virgin Money Giving Page - the sooner you start fundraising, the more money you will raise to help us save babies' lives.
We'll be in touch soon with training advice, fundraising tips, and information on ordering your Tommy's cycling jersey. We're here to support you in any way we can, so please get in touch if you need a hand. You can email [email protected] or call 020 7398 3400.
In the meantime, get to know your fellow cyclists and swap some top tips in our Facebook group.

Story
We miss Betsy every single day
Our beautiful baby girl was so perfect, I looked at her little face and waited for her to cry to prove that they were wrong, but she couldn’t.

Story
No one expects this to happen to them
'No one expects this to happen to them and no one can tell you how you’re meant to act. My pregnancy and birthing plan had disappeared over night and I had two sick babies who I was unable to care for. I felt totally alone with my own feelings and felt I had nowhere to turn.'

Story
Kolby's footprints
'Kolby’s Footprints will forever be helping others who suffer the loss of a baby or supporting where we can with babies that make an early appearance. I will make sure his memory lives on by helping others and leaving his little footprint on many hearts'.

Story
For all the little ones we did not get to meet
'Although personally I found this easier to deal with than the first loss hearing the word miscarriage again brought back a flood of emotions. It was then I realised I needed to confront this, because ignoring and suppressing was never going to send it away.'
