Story

Miscarriage can be a really unhappy and frightening experience. 

Some of you will know that from personal experience – and that when  it happened to us the Miscarriage Association’s support and information was invaluable. 

The Miscarriage Association makes a real difference 

They provide support and information when it’s most needed - and I want to help them continue doing that for others in this situation.

I’m doing the Adnams Southwold 10k run to raise funds for them and I need your help!

Income from event sponsorship makes up more than a quarter of The M.A.’s £200,000 annual budget, so every penny of your sponsorship will really make a difference.  What’s more, if you are a UK taxpayer and Gift Aid whatever you give, you’re adding another 25% to the charity without it costing you a thing. 

Take a look at the figures and see what your money can do:

£5 pays for sending out a pack of 5 information leaflets on miscarriage facts and feelings

£17 pays for helpline support and a leaflet pack for one person

£20 means staff can send leaflet packs to four people

£36 will staff the helpline for an hour (responding to 2 to 4 requests for help)

£50 pays for one hour’s outreach costs, telling 10 nurses, midwives or doctors about The M.A.

£100 will enable the M.A. to train a new support volunteer 

£250 pays for a training session for GPs or hospital doctors

£500 means they can send leaflet packs to 100 people

£1,000 will cover the cost of researching, writing and producing a new information leaflet
