Anyone is welcome to join us on one of the mountain sections. If you are interested please register with us by contacting events@childbreavement.org.uk <br><br>All funds raised throughout the event are for the Child Bereavement Charity which is the UK’s leading national organisation that supports families and educate professionals both when a baby or child of any age dies or is dying, or when a child is facing bereavement.<br><br>When a baby or child dies, or a child is bereaved, many of those affected are unable to access good quality support which meets their individual needs.
