Cycle Mount Teide · 5 January 2025

Sadly our founder, Louise Taylor, lost her first born, Ruben, in the middle of her pregnancy. Struggling to find support after her loss, she turned to alternative ways to keep her mind focused and away from the heavy thoughts that come after a child loss.  The aims of the LFMNT is to grow the access to support services for bereaved families. We promote art therapy, either individual or group sessions. We want our families to develop coping mechanisms after their trauma. Each person or families will have a different approach but we at the LFMNT have established a relationship with other local bereaved mums and volunteers who want to help raise awareness and help deliver the aims of the Trust. Last year we developed relationships with Northern Irelands finest art therapists. They can see the vision for this charity and helped design a pilot project that engaged 10 bereaved families and 30 individuals to our alternative approach.  Our plan for 2022 is to work with another 10 bereaved families and provide them with art therapy sessions.   The support we are able to offer families can only grow if we continue to raise funds. Our hopes and dreams for the LFMNTs are huge, and we know we will achieve so much more over the next few years.  We are excited to be in a position to be working to help change Northern Ireland's lack of alternative practical support for bereaved parents.

Story

🌋Teide for Eadie 🌋

I am asking for a £10 donation.

I would like to raise some money in memory of my wee friend Eadie Mallon-Coyle who passed away peacefully on the 1st November 2024 at just 4 months of age.

On the 5th January 2025 I plan to cycle up Mount Teide.

The route to the volcanic plateau is one of the longest continuous climbs in European territory.

This involves approx 5 hours of cycling uphill gaining 2200 metres from the south coast of Tenerife.

As I will be climbing 2200 metres my target is for 220 people to donate £10 each to reach a target of £2200.

All money raised will go to Little Forget Me Knots Foundation who support families through the journey of infant loss
