My best mate of over 30 years Mark & his partner Rachael tried for 8 years to have a baby. Last year that wish was granted & earlier this year they were blessed with a beautiful baby girl Lara Florence. For those that have seen photos of her she brought so much joy & love to their entire family.

Sadly this week Lara was cruelly taken from them in her sleep by SIDS. No words can express everyone’s devastation & heartbreak & the outpouring of love & support has been shown through social media by everyone who knows Mark & Rachael.

As his mate, I know it will be some time before they can even consider any sense of normality especially as Mark has had his own health issues. To take any added pressure away from them & to also give Lara a beautiful fitting send off this little angel deserves, I have set up this Just giving page. They have requested privacy at this tragic time but this small gesture will show them the support & love surrounding them & also the impact their beautiful little girl made on everyone in her short life.

Thank you
