Our Tiny Miracles — Oliver & Cooper

On 6th February 2026, our lives changed forever when our beautiful twin boys, Oliver and Cooper, came into the world 9 weeks early.

Instead of bringing our babies home and beginning the journey we had imagined, we found ourselves facing a world of incubators, monitors, tubes and uncertainty. Our tiny boys were so small and fragile, but every day they showed us just how strong they could be.

Those days in neonatal care were some of the hardest and most frightening moments of our lives. But amongst all the worry, there was also so much kindness, support and hope.

The Tiny Lives Trust became a huge part of our journey. Their support helped us through a time when we felt overwhelmed and scared, and reminded us that we weren’t alone. They do so much for premature and sick babies and their families, helping make an incredibly difficult time just a little bit easier.

Now, months later, we’re watching our little boys grow, smile, learn and become the cheeky little characters they were always meant to be.

And their big sister Harper wants to do something very special for her brothers.

Harper is taking part in the Great North Mini Run in honour of Oliver and Cooper, and to raise money for The Tiny Lives Trust. ‍♀️

At just three years old, she is running for the two little brothers she loves so much and for the charity that supported our family when they were at their tiniest and most vulnerable.

Every step Harper takes will be for Oliver and Cooper, for every premature baby fighting their way home, and for every family sitting beside a neonatal cot hoping and praying for better days.

We couldn’t be prouder of our brave little girl. ❤️

From two tiny babies who arrived far too soon, to their big sister running to give something back — this is their story.

If you can donate, share or simply cheer Harper on, it would mean the absolute world to our family.

For Oliver. For Cooper. For Harper. For Tiny Lives. ‍♀️
