250,000 steps for Scottish Care & Information On Miscarriage · 31 March 2021

Miscarriage Support - offers counselling for women who have suffered miscarriage, stillbirth or neonatal death following loss, before trying again and in pregnancy following loss. Our counsellors are university trained and have personal experience of loss.

Story

Every year in the UK 250,000 pregnancies end in miscarriage. In 2016 my own pregnancy was one of those. I was 22, terrified, confused and incredibly traumatised - and I was offered no therapy or aftercare. 

I turned to Scottish Care & Information On Miscarriage for their pay-what-you-can counselling service and I can honestly say that they saved my life. Their mission is to provide counselling for people and couples in Scotland "who have suffered miscarriage, stillbirth or neonatal loss".

I wanted to give something back to such a vital service, and so in March I will walk 250,000 steps to remember the babies who don't make it here, raise money for the service that was invaluable to my partner and I at the hardest point in our lives, and to remember my own baby whose birthday would have been in March had the circumstances been different.

I really appreciate any donation to a cause that is so personal to Derek and I, thank you x
