Story

Our baby boy, Benjamin, was stillborn 5 years ago on 2nd April 2021. Each year since, Graham has hosted a memorial golf day to support charities that have supported us over the past 5 years.

This year all the proceeds are going to Aching Arms, who have supported us as a family through their various “Be Together” events and their Dad focussed "OFFLOAD" campaign.

"OFFLOAD is an Aching Arms campaign, dedicated to supporting Dads in the construction industry who have experienced pregnancy and baby loss, helping them feel seen, heard and understood in their workplace.

Baby Loss is devastating, and for many bereaved Dads, there is often little space to grieve, share their feelings or seek support. Men often feel like working environments adopt a tough, no-nonsense culture which makes opening up about feelings after baby loss extremely difficult and uncomfortable for many.

We believe no Dad should have to carry this weight alone."

The golf day is on Friday 10th April at The Warren Golf Club, contact Graham for more details of how to join.

Many thanks for your support ⭐️
