Fundraiser for SUDC UK in memory of Finlay Roberts

Elizabeth Roberts is raising money for SUDC UK
In memory of Finlay Roberts
SUDC UK is dedicated to increasing awareness of Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood, supporting families and funding crucial research. Our vision is for SUDC to be predictable and preventable in the future. SUDC is one of the most under-recognised medical tragedies of our time.

Story

In July last year, we lost our much-loved two year old son Finlay (Finn/Finny to his friends and our FinnBear from the very start). His death was sudden and unexpected, which has made it all the harder to understand.

In his memory, we have set up this fundraising page to support the work of SUDC UK. SUDC UK not only provide advice to families but campaign for all professionals to receive training. The way in which we were treated in the aftermath of Finlay's death shows just how vital this work is.

It's not just that we miss Finny so very much, he is also missing from us. We are thankful for the nearly three years we had with him. They were wonderful years filled with joy and happiness. We desperately wish there had been more.

With our love and thanks,

Liz and David

SUDC is the sudden and unexpected death of a child aged 1-18 years where the cause of death remains unexplained after a thorough investigation. 40 children are affected every year in the UK, more than young child deaths due to traffic accidents, fires or drowning and comparable to 1-2 seemingly healthy children dying every fortnight. Thank you for your support.
