Story

We are really excited to be sharing the details of our first ever Footprints Fundraising event… Miles in March! This event is for all family and friends of our community, from grandparents to siblings and surviving twins & triplets, and anyone in between.

We will be completing the event virtually through March as a community, sharing updates with each other as we go, encouraging each other when it's tough.

How many miles will we cover as a team? We will update you through the month.

We have a variety of modes of movement, including running, biking, walking, swimming and more besides.

We are fundraising in memory of our twins and triplets that have died and will be thinking of them throughout the month, sharing their names and talking about them.

We understand the value of having a safe space to be able to communicate with someone who has been through something similar, and aim to provide a kind, caring and inclusive approach with our bereavement services. Our support is provided by those who have had first hand experience of twin or triplet loss.

As a core team of two and our brilliant volunteers, we are reliant on your donations to deliver our bereavement services and provide ongoing support to families who have experienced twin or triplet loss, at whatever stage of their bereavement journey.

Your donations will help us in many ways including:

-Delivering our monthly online support groups

-Maintaining an active and engaged online community through our Facebook group

-Offering befriending services to those who need it, at whatever stage of their journey

-Providing training and mental health support for our volunteer befrienders and online community volunteers.

You can find out more about our support services on our website and see just how important this support is.
