In August this year 2017, we are climbing Ben Nevis to raise money to buy a Cuddle Cot for Crosshouse Hospital in memory of Jacob, who was born to Laura. But sadly died just over an hour old. He had Potters Syndrome. Its £1700 to buy the cot hopefully if we raise more we could buy more. So please no matter how big or small it will make a big difference. We are aiming to Summit Ben Nevis on the 5th August, all updates before and after will be on here or my facebook page. Thanks again x

CuddleCot has been internationally recognised across the world as significantly helping parents who suffer the loss of a baby. Dealing with the death of a baby is clearly an incredibly difficult event for parents and bereaved parents should be given the option of spending Time with their baby. Providing families Time through the use of the CuddleCot is internationally encouraged by midwives, bereavement practitioners, still birth/neonatal charities, and academics. Time allows the family to form an important bond with their baby; whether changing a nappy, dressing the baby, taking photographs or simply just staying close and this unquestionably helps families in dealing with their loss. The problem is that in a warm room the baby’s condition can deteriorate quickly, therefore cooling the baby is absolutely essential. Transferring to and from the morgue is now widely regarded as an outdated practice as it is traumatic for parents to repeatedly go through the separation process whereas the CuddleCot allows the family to spend every moment with their baby, precious moments where every minute counts.
